Rear End Oil Leak

Just noticed a drop of oil on the garage floor this morning as I went to work and when I got home tonight had a look under rear of car and saw oil running down rear exhaust as per picture below. Car is an auto that's done 110,000. Not a lot of oil.

Diff oils done last year, transfer case oil in April and gearbox flush being done this Saturday.

Car is very slow to fill with diesel as its has been since I got it in Aug 2012 and car was brimmed a week ago and only driven last Sunday and today in hot weather.

Brake fluid holder looks full.

Noticed one drop of oil in same place on garage floor a few months ago but nothing since until today.

Looks about the area where rear brake pipes corrode, I know you say brake fluid level ok , but would have a look at those pipes. Also have a look around diff oil seal areas.

Similar type of patch was in a car that had a turbo pipe leaking oil, maybe not yours, but....yes it seems brake fluid because of the location.
