Hi historica,
Thank you for the donation.
Yes, the explanation is logical. When the differential bearings are worn, it would cause the CV joint to have excessive side play and this would result in the oil leaks.
The oil seal replaced 2 months ago could be the initial diagnosis and but during that time, they should have noted the excessive side play of the CV shaft.
