Was under my truck ('09 4x4, ~127k) the other day and noticed a wet/oily spot on the passenger side axle, where the axle (CV shaft, I guess) comes out of the housing.  Doesn't appear to be leaking much- certainly doesn't mark the pavement where I park it.

I'm thinking the seal is probably pretty cheap...but not sure how much of a pain it is to get to it?

Also kind of wondering if I really need to fix it at all...I probably will regardless, but if it doesn't get worse in much of a hurry, it's not causing any issues to speak of right now.
