front axle leaking?

Just found that my pass. side front axle is leaking. I haven't driven it for a week and it's been over 90 every day. And it wasn't leaking before. I read on here that sometimes it maybe the breather being clogged?? Do you all think that maybe the case or the seal? Thanks for any help..

I would just replace the breather tube, top off the fluid, and see if it still leaks. Helluva lot cheaper and easier than replacing the seals. Plus, being 10 years old, that breather tube is in need of replacement if it looks anything like my 10 year old breather tube.
