Pete sent back some sage advice. Now all I need to do is follow it :0)
It appears that the bearing part #'s 30 and 31 in the pic below have likely failed. Part 31 is the inner race of the bearing. Part # 10 is the inner bevel box seal that has likely failed allowing the oil to escape.
So there is a fair amount of work needed to be done to repair this but winter is here and riding opportunities are slim anyway. Pretty much it be be a complete dis-assembly of the rear drive assembly. It will be good to get into the rear drive as I have not seen it apart before.

Looks like a good project. Worth a good overhall while you're in there I assume. Will watch progress with interest.
Good luck, Chris. Just take your time and I am sure it will work out fine. Keep everyone posted on your progress!
Damned olive oil gear lube strikes again :)
If you need the use of a press or precision measurement, call me.
I have a large hammer I can lend if needed.
After this, you can rebuild Andrew's Commando in minutes, and finally get him back on the road!
