Gear oil leaking from both sides - Dana 60

Took the Charger for a drive the other day and the next morning I noticed gear oil leaking down the inside of my rear tires, coming from the drum area. I have a Strange S60 that I installed about 10 years ago but only put about 1200 miles on it so far.

The S60 has a vent on the top but different than the one I can remember having on my 8.750 which acted as a bolt down for the brake tee.  Since its leaking out of both sides all of a sudden, should I be looking to replace this vent or could it be another thing? 

I didn't look at the wheels/floor before taking it out for a ride which was the first this year so I don't know if this leaked over the winter or not.  Any feedback is welcome on where to start.

I had the same problem with my Dart, 8 3/4 rear. pulled out of the drive way and noticed it as leaking out both drums. I replaced both inner axle seals and problem solved. :2thumbs:
