Transfer case prop shaft leak

Gday all. Been reading up on the dreaded prop shaft oil leak and just want to know if this is what’s happening on mine. As far as I’m aware my model is newer than the last affected chassis number on the Suzuki bulletin so shouldn’t be an issue but it’s definitely leaking. Also how can oil leak from there? I can’t see how there is oil in the prop shaft. The transfer case output seal is not leaking. 

Pics are off the prop shaft from the transfer case forward to the front diff

The leaky prop shaft is the one between the gear box and the transfer case. The slip yoke on the fwd end of the shaft can "pump" oil out of the gearbox when the shaft is leaking.

Mine is now selad with Tec7, Sikaflex or something.

Oh i see, that prop shaft is fine with no leaks, just the one from the transfer case fwd to the front diff has oil on it. It does have a grease nipple on it so perhaps it’s been over greased and it’s seeping out.
