I'm not sure that it matters much Dave.

20lbft, using the correct tightening sequence which you will find in various publications.
Go round a few times, tightening in increments rather than all in one go.
Finally after first good warm-up, wait till the engine is stone cold again and re-torque.

Yes, I grease mine lightly on both sides.
