Where is it leaking from front or back.If its the back a nice service and new gasket will do the jog.If its the front its most likely a seal.Both are easy to do

Probably your cover gasket, time to pull it and change that diff fluid as well.
I have a TA girdle and I had a nasty leak, I got a new gasket and some Indian head gasket shellack and the rear has been dry ever since.

probably the pinion seal. I would take it in to have it replaced. If you overtighten the pinion nut when you replace the seal you'll have toasty pinion bearings in a few months.
