Default Intake Manifold Installation - 99 Accord

I've been on quite a little journey with this car. I just got the head back from machine shop and need to mount the intake manifold back onto it. It was one hell of a chore to get the old gasket off, but now I need to put the new one on. I was just wondering if there is more to it than simply putting it on and bolting it up. Is there a specific tightening pattern like the head?

Thanks!

I would probably get all the fasteners finger tight. Start tightening in the middle and work out.

Here are two videos by ericthecarguy on this:

Thanks....and now I have another question. In my gasket kit, I found the green pressed fiber gasket that was like the one I removed and placed it on and bolted the intake up to the head. Looking through the gasket kit later on for something else I found another gasket, black coated that looks like the below. I'm confused? Was I supposed to put both of them on. The green one and this black one?
