only way to know for sure is to take a look see ... get ahold of the rear end yoke and see if you can move it back and forth ... if it moves then you have more problems than a seal ... you could pull the cover and see if there is fluid in it that may help to isolate where it is comming from ... hope this helps some ... tao

There's also a plug on the right side of the pumpkin under the thick ridge. The oil level should be up to the bottom of the hole. If you haven't had the rear open yet, now might be the time to pull the cover and check it all out.
