I have noticed oil appearing on my drive and when I looked under may car noticed the bottom of the diff is wet with oil and it appears top be coming from the front. Is this likely to be a seal? If it is is it 'easy' to replace?

If it is the seal, is it a diff off job or cam it be done in situ?

Can be done in situ but easier on a bench. Could also be the output seals x2.
