Steering Knuckle Leak?

What would cause this leak in an 85 solid axle steering knuckle?

Well I'm no expert by any means, but that doesn't really look like grease leaking out. You might have a bad inner axle seal allowing gear oil to get into the knuckle. If I'm wrong, then probably the felt wipers that seal the backside of the knuckle.
