Default oem cam seals or aftermarket?

Long story short. My car does not burn a single drop of oil but over a period of time, I was somehow losing oil. Found out, a little of the oil was leaking from the cam seals. I am going to replace it so should I just go with an oem or an aftermarket one? If so, which aftermarket ones are the best? The car is a 97 Ls Integra pretty much stock.

the aftermarket o-ring style seals are the best, blox, password jdm, all very reliable well built seals, i bought a generic ebay 2 oring seal for mine and its worked fine, but like previous posts have indicated, some of thsoe ebay seals can wind up being made wrong and still leak just the same. So go with a name brand seal.
