Having done a bit of digging around a link to this forum came up from a previous poster with a leak in the exact same place.
I Have recently done a haldex oil change and apparently if overfilled the excess will deposit through the drain hole, so it's possibly that.
Strange though as the tube...
I recently noticed some spots on the drive so had a quick look under to see if anything obvious is staring at me.
