yay!
I said something similar Ken. I have seen users use that axle vent as a
grease fitting and blow the crap out of seals.

Sean, another thought worth saying. Sometimes the vent on the axle housing
(on carrier assy early models) gets clogged up. When the whole assy heats up
the
gear oil must go somewhere and that inside seal becomes suspect. I just skim
the inside of the hub assy to avoid bare metal after the solvent cleaning
them
pack the bearings.
Was there evidence of gear oil? Wonder if the cork piece was missing from
the
keyway?
