Just to make sure I'm oriented right (that's a challenge each and every day!), you are finding oil that has dripped down onto rectangular cover on the inside of the final drive, the one that covers the inside end of the axle. If that's the case, and you recently fixed the leak on the pan and refilled the final drive, and then the leak appeared, that suggests pretty strongly that you need a new seal where the differential shaft passes into the top of the final drive. If this were happening on the right I could pretty wwell guarantee it. Where it's on the left, however, and the fnial is bolted hard up against the tranny, it could also be the seal where the other end of the diff'l shaft passes into the transmission case. Have you done any work on/added any oil to the tranny lately.
If I'm understanding the problem correctly and you already have the tire, rim and wheel off, you're halfway to finding and fixing it. You'll need to pull the final drive off and have a look-see. Part of me says don't disturb anything that isn't leaking -- the other part says replace all the bearings and seals you can get to while you have it apart.
