Check the vent to start, if it is blocked then that will cause the seal to leak. Do you know which of the 3 10 bolt GM axles you have? 7.5 - 8.2 - 8.5?
So it's not the seal leaking, it's the addded slop in the two splines. I rarely come across it but it does happen. Make sure not to over tighten the pinion nut, mark it and put it back to where it was.
