Default asap help: leaking transmission fluid from passenger axle

Ok so I've just noticed on top of getting an engine code that my passenger axle is leaking. I've taken it all down and so far as I can tell its in all the way. Is there a transmission seal that I'm not aware of that might have been broken when I took it off to do my clutch?
I'm looking at the manual and other than the snap ring which is brand new am I missing something? I need to get to the airport by two so trying to get this done soon.

guess I must have broken the axle oil gasket when I took it out.
Sadly....its a special Toyota tool and non of our repair manuals even have a how to on it.

yes there is a seal on the pass. side axle... if its leaking from there thats your problem nothing else (leaking from the tranny side of course)...

the seal is 10 bucks from toyota..

pull the pass. axle out... pull the old seal out... regrease new seal...insert in same location.. pop in axle... boom your done...

its an easy fix

its there any tools (special) needed for this? because it was said there was by the dealership.
Trust me I just threw a P0301 code and money is going towards that over anything at this moment. I'm off to get some spark plugs
