What has caused this...

I'm asking as a precaution really, but what has caused the splattering of oil, directly above the front of the rear prop, and is it something to be concerned about..?

Cheers

Have a look to see if boot on shaft split. Found the boot on mine had a split in it when I replaced due to centre bearing and rear UJ on the way out .

As it looks more like grease than oil it can only really be the rear shaft cv joint is leaking from somewhere, only needs to be tiny for the grease to get flung out.
