Differential casting seeping

1293 Views 6 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  big gear head
The differential on my 66 Chevelle is seeping oil at the plug welds where the axle tubes fit into the differential casting. How can I fix that permanently? This is the original rear end for this car. It is a Kansas City car.

Sense it is common and it is steel welding is the way to go.I have three places it is seeping, not enough to drip on floor but makes a mess on the differential. I can clean it up real well and I will wire brush it and identify the exact location of the seep. If welding doesn't work I can always grind out my repair out and try JB Weld. Thank you for everybody's time.
