So here's the deal. I store my Stang every winter and this winter she developed a leak from the rear of the transmission. It is dripping off the the yoke/u-joint. So today I got home for Easter break and start looking into this leak because I really want to drive her this weekend. I take the driveshaft off and can't find a trail of fluid anywhere on the yoke to the u-joint. My guess is it is leaking internally in the yoke. Is that possible? Also I noticed the "shaft with teeth" that is in the rear of the tranny, where the yoke sticks into, has some play in it. Is this normal?
I took some pictures of the yoke and a video of the play in the toothed shaft.
It's hard to tell but there is tranny fluid all over the u-joint.
Inside the yoke.

Does anything look abnormal to you guys? Any suggestions on what to do?
