Leaky 2a Free Wheeling Hubs

Ok I will ask this again now we have our nice site back

My FWH are leaking out ep90 which is strange as I have Semi-Fluid Grease in my swivel housing's and I believe that the wheel bearings should be greased.

So my question is this likely to be coming from the diff ?
and if so should it? or is there a oil seal some where on route thats failed?

Regards
Clivees

Ps
Its a 1964 2a SWB (Rover axils I think)

Well the drums are ok as i have just replaced the final seal.
Question is it hard to replace the half shaft seal? and what else should i be looking at?
