You cant really seal the motor because it still has opening at least near the shaft if not also on the back...
Most of mines have opening on the back so i have some small patch of tape there to protect from dirt entering, especially on Z which is just more exposed.

warming and cooling will expand/shrink the air inside and with an airtight venting hole expanding air exits through the bearings, taking grease with it.
