T-case leak?

So I drove the car around on a cold day so I could get a few miles in on the new motor and a couple days later i noticed a significant amount of gear oil leaking. It's coming from the tcase area right behind the oil drain plug. I took a few pictures with my phone so I could try and pin point where this was coming from and it looks like it is coming out the breather on the tcase but wanted your guys opinions. I didnt put the fluid in so I cannot confirm how much went in.

Yes, it is leaking from the breather. It is overfilled. T-case builds up some pressure while you are driving and then push out the fluid from the breather if it is overfilled. It looks like a little bit leaking from driver's side axle seal, too.

You don't have the M8 transmission mount bolt. I would be worried about that more.

Is that M8 x 1.25mm pitch x 60mm long? I just saw that too, I'm gonna bolt that up before I lower her back down.

 

[DSMPT]

Yes, that's the one.
