Help! My tree is bleeding.

This tree is less than 4 years old and right after when we first planted it, a cat scratched the Southwest side. This is a schumered Oak in south east Texas. Fast forward a few years and the is terrible damage from hot sun on the scratch. I have wrapped the tree, but it bleeding through the wrap. What do I do?

I have heard of lime paint, but many say not. The tree has a constant highway of small black ants. Idk if that is related. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. I just dont trust the suggestions from ChatGPT or even the internet. It there a tree guru out there?
