You can see my project blog to see details of this. The backing plate seals directs oil/grease that leaks out of the axle to direct it out of the weap hole down the outside of backing plate. But if it's leaking, then its the axle seals that need probably need to get replaced. 80% of the battle is pulling the drums..after that pulling the axles is not a big deal as they don't require you to open the diff up. They just pull out after the backing plates are removed.
