Rear End Leak !?!!

Okay first off, its the 10 bolt (eaton posi,3.73s,mosier axles) 2000 ws6

After not driving the car much for a week straight (waiting to get tuned), i noticed i had small puddles of gear oil from the rear, so i got under the car and confirmed,. Its leaking what it looks like from the front of the housing where the driveshaft connects.. and running down the torque arm mount Bolts... Did i blow a seal ? **** this is not good, i have to drive the car like 200 miles round trip saturday morning to get tuned..

Any advice would help out here guys ...

front pinion seal is a common problem. i don't think it'll leak enough to cause any damage just in 200 miles.

well after reviewing Caliente's FAQ. looks like it will be going into a shop(lame).

Hope it makes it to my tuner and back..
