Rear Axle Leak??

So I was under the truck today wiping down the frame and checking things out (because who doesn't lie under there truck and wipe down the frame....can we say...ANAL!!!....sorry....come by it naturally!!!) and a saw this leaking oil.....smells like rear gear oil...this pic is of the passenger side rear drum...the driver side isn't leaking (that I know of)......
So I didn't get time to pull the wheel and drum, but when I do, what am I looking for??....Has a seal gone bad??....If so, how easy (I hope) would it be to repair??....

FYI....I originally sand blasted this axle, primed and painted it with the old drums on it, then rebuilt the drums and installed it on the frame.....

Thanks for any input and help!!!
