Fing, the typical leakage points on this are the companion flange (inner driver) seals and comp. flange housing O'rings, the rear cover gasket or the speedo drive ass'y O'ring. Also the bolts ,six on each side, that secure the comp. flange housings to the case must be coated with a good thread sealer because they go through to the inside (I always use "Permatex form-a-gasket #2) and lots of guys forget/don't know that. Lastly, the pinion shaft passes through two oil seals where it transitions from the transmission to the final drive. The seals are oriented so as to keep the ATF up front and the gear oil out back. I haven't known those to cause a problem and you can't do anything about them without a total rebuild. Clean you diff. case real well and then watch for the tell-tale leakage. The comp. flange seal on the passenger side is the prime suspect. The extra heat over there gets at them. The bolts are the #2 suspect. Just one without adequit sealant will drain the F.D. Cheers.
