Default Does Lexus make a relief seal for the camshaft

Had the cam seal replaced and still leaking in same area.My mechanic thinks it could be that the camshaft has a groove in it causing oil to seep out.He told me some automobile companies make relief seals that slip inside the cam seal to stop the leak preventing the need to buy a new camshaft.Also had the valve cover gasket replaced.Was wandering if its alright to just put gasket sealer on each corner instead of putting it over the whole gasket.
