Am I safe to drive it for a couple weeks till I can fix it all as long as I watch the gear lube? My brakes on that side are allready shot from the lube. Its leaking pretty bad. That wont ruin the bearing though will it?

With that seal theres the chance that not only fluid is getting out but dirt is also getting in. Chances are that if the fluid is kept to the proper level the bearing will be fine but theres not guarantees in life.
