A few of the bolts had worked loose (direct impact or too much 50mph washboard) so that's where all the seepage was. Tightened everything down, cleaned the area, ran a heavy bead of silicone, and refilled the rear diff. 24 hours later and I don't see a leak anymore. I'd have it all torn out and put in an ARB e-locker if I wasn't hellbent on going back to a Tacoma.
Thanks for the info! Hopefully it was just caused by the washboard, and glad your repair worked!
