Replaced The camshaft seal on the timing side of the engine, and also replaced the valve cover gasket, and seems as if im still losing a good amount of oil from the camshaft seal....fairly puzzling..is there any possibility that my cam shaft could be bent and each time its spinning its creating a small loop to dispense oil around the seal?

Are you sure you inserted the seal to the correct depth and was it a tight fit? Was this an OEM seal? Is seal leaking from camshaft/seal or seal/engine block?

Shaft seals depend on tight tolerances to seal correctly. Not much could damage a camshaft unless you've removed and reinstalled valve train.

Was it leaking before you replaced the seal? This is why I don't believe in preventive maintenance on seals. Too easy to create the problem you're trying to prevent.

I would suggest to try a new OEM seal. Make sure the sealing surfaces are very clean and unscratched, particularly the rotating camshaft surface.

good luck
