I just fixed a 'leak' that was a little worse than that. Best case, it costs you $18 for a new seal. Worst case, figure on something closer to $500. I was in for about $525 if I count the relined brake band.
If it is just the seal, it will take you about an hour to fix it. It is easy. Remove the bolts that hold that tin cover to the tractor. Disconnect the linkage and the spring. Pull off the cover abd the brake band. Take the bolt out of the end of the brake drum. Pull the drum out.
You will see the grease seal and the end of the pinion shaft. Grab the end of the pinion shaft and try to move it up and down, side to side. If it does not move, pry the old seal out and drive in a new one. If you were satisfied with the brake on that side, wash the grease off the band and put it all back together.
If the pinion shaft moves, there is a bad bearing in there and the repair involves moving heavy parts. It is not difficult either, just more expensive and heavier.
