It's probably NOT the seal. There are 2 "O" rings that seal the ends of the sliding joint at the drive end of the prop shaft. The wrench at my Dealer told me that they replace these rings every time they pull the final drive off because they will leak and cause this exact problem. They recommended pulling the drive and lubing the slider joint every time you replace the rear tire. If I had to bet, I'd say it's the one at the end of the pinion adapter, but you should replace both while you are in there greasing the sliding joint.

I'm pretty sure I'm leaking final drive oil and I'm mostly sure it's leaking from here.
