Black Fluid coming from drivers side rear of car

[youwish]

This is near the wheel area of rear tire, can't tell where exactly its coming from, car was parked at a tilt in a driveway yesterday and noticed it for the first time. Doesn't look like tranny fluid, not sure if its oil. Any suggestions?

The axle seal needs replacing.

Thanks for quick response!

This is not something I am experienced enough to do, Just so I don't faint, approx. (ballpark) what are we looking at to repair?

Thanks again!

I have no idea for the cost. But unless you've got hundred dollar bills coming out of your nostrils, dont take it to the dealer, go somewhere else.
