Ok so here's what's up. On Valentine's Day I dropped the driveline. I removed the yoke. Then I pulled the seal out and replaced it. I put everything back together. When I was pulling the seal I did slip with a chisel and nick the ring around the seal on the pinion support. I didn't think it was that bad but now it went from a slower leak to a persistent dripping. I've tracked down a new/used pinion support. Any ideas other than that?

Install another new seal. Use some good old #2 Permatex around the outside perimeter of the new seal. That should take care of your problem unless the gouge is really deep. If so, you may need to find another bearing support.
