I don't think it would hurt anything. Especially if it has typical head gaskets...not a multilayer steel or copper.

I have done it on engines with both composite and steel shim gaskets without issue. I'm not sure why it wouldn't work on an MLS gasket also. Most recently I added the spark plug wire holders on the low deck in my Dart. No issues and dry as a bone.
If there is a small leak in any case a few tabs or bottle of stop leak will take care of it. If the engine coolant passages are clean/dry I have had amazing luck with Moroso Ceramic Seal. We had an external leak on a 2.2L TT2 engine and it was bad. Followed the directions loosely (cooling system was flushed and dry but it had antifreeze previuosly) and it never had an issue again. I was shocked.
