hey guys the seal between the oil pan and cam shaft seems to be leaking coolant??? im thinking to myself, how can coolant come from there? does coolant flow there? and how do i fix this?
 
Are you sure it is not coming from your water pump, and just leaking down to the area you see it. Check for a coolant leak coming from a little piss-hole at the bottom of your water pump. When this happens, it is a sign that your water pump is about to go out.
 
Coolant leak

I assume by "Camshaft" you mean "Timing cover"? I would try to eyeball the water pump behind the pulley and see if you got coolant coming out the weep hole on the pump.
