Something Leaking. Need help with the ID

[Empurfektion]

I change my oil and always get up under the car to take a look at things because I always like to know what's going on. I'm no expert by any means but I do know what to look for. Ever since I've had this car, I've changed the oil and have always noticed that the shield under the car is covered with an oily liquid. It's not from me changing oil because the Oil pan shows no signs of leaking and neither does the filter holder.

Well, I think I finally found what was causing this but I need helped identifying what exactly it is. I know it is something on the Drivetrain (possibly transmission). Here are so pics to see if you can help me identify what it is and if I should take it to the dealership right away. It's heading there this afternoon because my radio took a dump on me.

Let me know!!! Any help would be great!

Oh, and the oil is yellowish. No weird smell. Smells like oil.
Sorry about the photos. My iPhone isn't the best camera.

That's the PTO (power take off) for the rear drive and it is the likely culprit. If under warranty, take it in to dealer for fix, otherwise, just clean it off every oil change, change/check the fluid level and simply monitor it. Note, the gear oil in the PTO and rear diff require replacing every 20k or so miles...

Really? Replace every 20k Miles? I haven't done that yet and should probably read how to do so. Its going to the dealer in about 20 mins so I'll def make sure they take a look at it.

Thank you VERY much for the help.

Had the same leak, dealer fixed for me under warranty. Its a seal between the transfer case and the PTO as Forzda suggested.

I just dropped it off and told them about it. They said they have seen it before and will replace that first before lookin at the stereo. All under warranty *cheer*.

I'll let you know what happens.
