Noticed an oil leak wherever the car was parked, and localized it to be coming from the front differential.
Specifically the left axle seal.
Ordered a new original seal and started disassembling.

The seal looked okay, but I'm sure it was due to be replaced.
Getting the new one in was a pain, it kept turning to each side and I ended up having to carefully line it up and do a proper, hard sledge hit to force it straight in at once. I used a plastic cap to distribute the force evenly.

Replaced upper and lower ball joint and inner and outer tie rod while I was at it.
