Will it never end! However there is a reasonable chance that the oil seal that fell out and a CV problem are related. If the CV is not "well" then the drive shaft can be forced into an eccentric rotation which would damage the oil seal...here's hoping!

Thats what im hoping, But ive not had it in 4x4 since and its still leaking, My thought is when i turn the steering the stiff cv is forcing the shaft against the seal???

Any luck yet Jamie, I'm curious to know what the problem is?

I have the cv joint, it arrived from camskill on Friday, but I was at kirton
On sat and as such I've not had a chance to fit it yet!!
I'm hoping to sort it this week as I'm away for a week on sat, it is definatley still leaking oil out..... I'm a bit frightened to fit it as if it keeps leaking I really am out of ideas!!!!
