leaky front diff

Hi everyone. i have a 92 4Runner V6 5 speed 4WD. recently i noticed a slight leak between drive shaft and the front diff on the passenger side.

I'm hoping to tackle this while i change out a bad CV today but i am a little concerned on how to get to that seal. (i bought the seal already from the dealer). is it as easy as taken out the 4 bolts where the drive shaft going into front diff or do i need to take apart the front diff to pull the axel out?

I searched but wasn't successful on finding any directions on how to do this. can someone point me to the right direction?

thanks

I searched. this was the first link.

Is this where its leaking, out is leaking where the cv goes into the diff.

I did my pinion seal about 3 weeks ago. took a little over an hour. Just used a screw driver to get the old seal out.
