Barrie, you said that you did an overhaul to the rear breaks by chance did you remove the 7/16-inch vent screw, which holds the brake tube junction to the axle housing at the left side of the housing and clean the vent hole or replace it with an un-vented screw. Many oil leaks at axle shafts and around differential pinion seals have been due to an excessive build-up of pressure in the housing caused by this vent being plugged.
