Rear end leaking solution?

Rear end leaking solution?
So I've come to realize that my stock posi track axle is leaking gear lube and it's puddling in an unusual place. I think I've pin pointed where it's coming from. It looks to me like it's leaking from the two press in? Button like plugs on the housing. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? I was thinking of just getting them welded along with the axle tubes. Any insight would be great.

Clean it up good with some solvent and a wire brass brush, on a drill. Then go to your local auto repair center like autozone or someplace and pick up some two part epoxy sticks for sealing fuel leaks. Mix the two sticks together and press into place and form over the leaks. smooth it up nice and overlap the plugs by about a half inch or so. Problem solved.

I can almost bet its coming from the input shaft. blow back and the spin off will make it pool right next to the buttons.
if you replace an entire rear axle for that I would be glad to take you on as a client

Aren't those weld spots for the axle tube housing? If so, I would say it may be possible for a good welder to close them back up but how difficult is it going to be to get all the residual out. I would say either get a new housing or just don't worry about it and service it once in awhile.
