The out put shaft on the engine is naturally lubricated with engine oil and it SEALED, the drive shaft linkage could use greese, make sure to check your rubber boot that seals the shaft itself.
The rear axle uses 80w-90 hipoid gear oil only.

Oil in that space it bad..usually means that the rear seal of the transmission is gone and you are loosing oil into the driveline.

I got one of those very situations right now..really bad too! Enough oil flowed down the tube and forced it's way into the differential that the diff was overfull!!
