L245DT Front Axle Oil Seal?

[South]

Left front started leaking oil where the axle enters the housing. Looking at the parts diagram I dont see an oil seal...am I missing something? Thanks.

Thats the diagram that I am looking at, I just dont see where the oil seal goes on the axle. I see one on the vertical shaft, which I assume keeps the oil in the drive axle tube. I would think there is one in the wheel axle housing, but I dont see it on the parts diagram.

I am tackling both front seals this weekend. Any tips? I can't seem to find many videos on YouTube that will help.
