Default Leaky diff?

Last nite i noticed there was some oil on the back of my front diff, where the shaft connects to the diff. Anyone eles had this problem? It looks like the oil is getting pushed past the seals. What would cause this, a clogged vent line, jumping which i have been doing alot of?
thanks

I had that problem with mine, it turned out the seal was inserted backwards they said. It was covered under my warranty.

Cueball mine is leaking at 800 miles.I just put a post on this about a week ago.I ordered a seal this week from the dealer,it was about $10.00.It looks easy to do,the shaft slips out after you remove the boots and their retainers.My leak is a LEAK....not a seep or what some call sweating.
