New wheels coming so I've been cleaning up the drums etc and have now finished with the front set.

When I removed the left rear wheel I found some oil. I've been searching some in the forum but decided to ask based on the photos I took. Might be something I don't want to do on the driveway. Is this typical for an axle seal or is it something else?

Appreciate any direction or clues.

Edit-----> I don't own a paper manual just yet. I did find this page which is where I feel I need to look or is it going to be deeper than this?
