AN sizing is a dash number, not an inch measurement — a -8AN fitting matches -8 hose, and the thread is a 37° flare that seals metal to metal without tape or sealant. Applying thread tape to an AN flare is the most common mistake in this category: it does nothing at the flare and can contaminate the fuel system downstream.
Pipe-thread adapters are a different matter. NPT threads seal on the taper and do need sealant, so a fitting with an AN end and an NPT end needs sealant on one half only. Anodised aluminum is light and adequate for most fuel and oil work; steel is what belongs anywhere subject to impact or high pressure.
