Default Oil leak from drive shaft ? ( right side )

Today, after replacing the drop links I noticed that the inner cover is wet with oil :/ I'm sure that is a mixture of grease and oil, and it is leaking from the inside like on picture http://imageshack.com/a/img538/9313/dvLMUf.jpg Replacement of the driveshaft will be needed or maybe something else?
Thanks

Can just repack it with grease and put a new clip on, or £30 for a shaft.

You can probably do it while it's still on, if not replace the oil seal too for the sake of a couple of quid.

Correct. shafts are not oil filled.

It's got black CV grease in there.
