Rear differential fluid

Heard some humming today. Where is the plug to check the fluid? Which side of the differential? Lots of paint on mine, wanna make sure I'm digging into the right thing. Thanks

Should be a plug on the cover. Just remove it and stick you finger in.
It should be at or very near the opening of the hole. If not then you need
to find out where it's going. But in the time being you should top it
up with the correct stuff.

The plug is on the driver side of the pig, near the pinion.
