    I just noticed oil spots in my driveway and realized my dif was leaking. Looks pretty bad but I don’t know how to fix it. It might just need new gaskets but it’s looks extremely bad.

    Just a pinion seal, no big deal. Sometimes the pinion bearing is badly worn and causes this, but the leak looks very manageable.

    Best to get a shop to repair it and let them take the liability of the repair. It's not hard, but its easy to make a mistake.
