second opinions on some fluid leak? PICS included

so i discovered i was leaking some fluid indicated by my garage floor. pulled the panels and i think i found the culprit. i cant seem to see anywhere else. anyone? thoughts?



so this is where i found most of the fluid.. underneath driver side axle..





this looks like a busted seal coming out of driver side (output shaft i wanna say) axle.





this is the part oreilly's personnel and website say will replace the axel seal.. but i think this is the actual P# EVO X MN132370+ 3200A145. (i cant get unless i order) is orielly's a subtle sub? anyone?





this is the passenger side axle seal (i think) no leaks, looks fine, looks the same as the drivers side except not damaged..





side note.... where can i get more of these?

anyones opinions? should i be looking elsewhere for leaks? I CANT FIND WRITE UP ON AXLE REPLACEMENTS. I SUCK AT FORUMS AND LIFE. PLEASE HELP.

Call dealer and order an OE axle seal for that leak, don't get an aftermarket one, as they will typically fail more frequently than an OE. Negligible price difference as well.
