Hi everyone! Can anyone please help me identify the source of this leak? It’s a seal in the front, I don’t know what I’m looking for.
I’m trying to learn and fix my car myself and avoid the dealership as much as possible
Please, anyone, a code or just a name to start my search.
Also if anyone has the link to the vehicle manual ( the one with pictures of everything and codes) I’d appreciate a download link. My model is Cherokee 2003 2.8 CRD

Thanks so much!

Here's the link to the service manual on this site:

I've attached a photo of the pinion seal for reference.
It's unclear whether the pinion seal is broken, though.

That looks like the rear output seal on the transfer case.
Pinion seal? If so, I ordered a replacement just need to take the car in to a mechanic and get it fixed after new years (I don’t think I can do this one myself.. )
