Timber lintels and airtightness

Day 2 of starting work and turns out I’ve got timber lintels on all openings on the inner leaf. 
 

How to deal with airtightness, just tape the hell out of them with Contega Solido SL?

 

I’d rather not have to replace replace literally every lintel internally unless it’s absolutely necessary, ££!

looks like you've got room to put some insulation between the wall and frame too.
