Is this normal?

Hey there, long time lurker with a few posts. I was underneath my truck today checking the u-joints on the drive shaft and what not and I noticed this while I was under there. It looks like transmission fluid is leaking out as the shaft from the transfer case spins.

Truck Information:
- 1996 F150 XLT | 4x4
- 168,000 Miles
- 5.0L V8
- Automatic 4R70W Trans
- 3.55 Non-LS
- Single Cab | 8ft Bed

I'm not sure if this is normal or not.

Here's some pictures of my truck as well for you guys;

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Should just be the rear seal. Drop the drive shaft. Get a seal puller and pull the seal and tap in another one...right?
