Front Diff Leaking

it looks like its leaking from where the front driveshaft goes into it. could it be a bad seal? how hard is it to replace this seal?

Search "pinion seal", I'm afraid I don't know much about replacing it.

does replacing it jeopardize the preload on the pinion bearing and crush sleeve and such?
