Hello, I have a question with my ‘96 auto GSX, my front RH passenger side axle seems too loose, video attached, I was wondering if this is an axle issue, or a part that holds the axle in the transmission and if it is the part that holds the axle, I was wondering what it was called to search for it and buy it. Please let me know any advice or input, thank you!

It also started leaking transmission fluid after moving it, so an axle seal will for sure be needed but was wondering what else could cause this, any input greatly appreciated!

Ok I can try to reinsert it, I also just drained the fluid because I am doing a valve body replacement with a shift kit, and the fluid came out with too much metal flakes for my liking, or is it normal? Also my transmission makes like a grinding noise from dead stop even when accelerating so I thought the axle could be subject to it?

Flakes in an auto are not good.
