does it need a gasket on an f7r?

Yes!

No.

You can use high temp silicone sealant instead, but if you are doing it whilst engine is in the car, make sure you have jacked the sump up or you end up getting sealant on bits you don't want too as space is limited as usual.

Mine has sealant only and is fine, just make sure you give it enough time to cure.
