Default Rear Diffs - Minor Oil Leak

We just recently pulled are Yeti XL's out after a few months of storage to finish building them. We are building two and noticed that both have a bit of oil seepage from the rear diff cover.

Is this normal? I know oil 'seep' through even the smallest gaps but figured it's better safe to ask now while we are still building vs. not ask and run into issues later.

Default Re: Rear Diffs - Minor Oil Leak

Mine didn't leak as I recall. But I then switched to a much thicker rear diff oil ( #1,000,000 AE oil) and it never leaked.
