Is this the typical BX front axle leak?

[magnatic]

I noticed this leak on my BX2350. Then I did a search on the forum and found that others have experienced a front axle leak as well. Is it often in the same place?
I noticed that some indicated that switching to 80W gear oil may stop the leak, but I'd still prefer to change the seal and then switch the oil if that's what is recommended.

Switching to 80W90 should stop the leak. SUDT is some mighty thin stuff.

I was surprised to find out the front axle of my L3800 had SUDT in it.

I'll be replacing with 80W90 when I change it.
