Sometimes yes, sometimes no. It depends on - A) what type of engine and B) what type of gasket. Older cars mainly used cork gaskets, so gasket sealant was a wise choice. New engines use rubber, some with metal bushings or spacers, so the typical "blue glue" as daddy used to call it isn't required.
Depending on the exact engine there may be a gasket for it. If not it may be a sealant like gasket goo. -I am unclear on that term 'cylinder jog'. but most crankshaft bearing surfaces should have a gasket, rather than a sealant.
This will depend on what type of gasket you need and what it is for. I came up with .44 cents as an average starting price. www.gasketstogo.com
