Pinion seal. Around $6-$8.
I had this happen on our 2000 Mountaineer recently. I removed the driveshaft from the rear end, removed the pinion nut and yoke, replaced the seal and reinstalled the yoke and pinion nut, stopped turning the nut when I couldn't move it any more.
This is a bit of a cheat because I did not replace the crush sleeve, but it takes 200 foot pounds to crush the sleeve and that's hard to achieve laying under the truck, so once the nut stops turning it's back to it's original sleeve torque.
I did this last spring and it hasn't leaked a drop since. Worked for me. Your results may vary.
If afterwards your diff makes noise on deceleration the nut isn't tight enough (ask me how I learned this).,
