Tim I don't "know' for squat... I'm just opinionated!

Assuming clean metal is what I'm starting with
3 coats epoxy primer underneath and 2 or 3 inside for sealing the metal. then I'd go for the 3M 8656 on the page you linked.
It say's its designed for the seams I believe OP is talking about.
If it is between pieces being bolted/screwed together maybe the 8578.
I made some gaskets for the headlight bucket/grill/fender seam out of a left over chunk of window setting tape the other day. I was pleased with how it worked into the seam with a plastic edger, trimmed off nice. I imagine the 8578 is like that. Great for sandwiching not for filling a gap.
I think the All Around 8500 would be good if your sealing the joints up for paint. Just as long as there's NO SILICONE...
