Default z250 diff spewing fluid...please help

Hey guys we are planning a trip to Sand Mountain this weekend and I just found a large puddle of fluid leaking out of the rear diff. Any ideas? Any suggestions for a temporary fix to get through the weekend?
Thanx

well check to make sure that all of the bolts are in and secure and make sure nothing looks cracked...If you can find out the source of the leak then it will help to locate an answer so if you can find it let me know

Theres supposed to be a black rubber bellows on that diff, over the vent hole. It should be securly clamped on, and should have any tears or rips.

Well here I my issue. I put an AC Racing skid plate on last week. My daughter hits a rock and he skid playte grabs it instead of sliding over. The skid plate screws into the actual differential and it tore a huge chunkoff the diff. case. $237 part! Moral of the story... stick with the stock skid plate as it has more clearance and slides over rocks better! Another expensive lesson .
