Differential is where the CV axle shafts connect to trans. The fill hole for differential is on firewall side and is hard to see from above.

If axle seals at trans are leaking, then the differential is most likely low or out of fluid. If out, it will eventually sieze, so get it refilled ASAP. Use trans fluiid as lubricant.
