Leaking seal, Which gasket is it?
I just got done changing the oil when I started to rotate my tires. When I pulled off the passenger rear wheel I noticed what looked like grease around the caliper and rear of the rotor. I checked my rear diff fluid and it didn't seem bad. I haven't noticed any leaks in the driveway so I assume that it has just started. My question is which seal would I need to replace to fix this problem?
Just bought 2 for my truck, you will need to take off your rotors, remove the 4 hub bolts and pull out the entire axle/hub assembly, replace the o'ring then put everything back together. I had leaks like that that stopped but I figure I would replace the o'rings anyhow.
Rovers long history with the hubs say it will be the hub that needs to be replaced along with a new o-ring.
Make sure that you change your gear oils while doing this, 7 quarts of a 75W/140, for the higher mileage, will take care of both diffs and the t/case.

Thank you all for your responses. I am currently running royal purple that has about 8000 miles on it. I will have to rip into it more to see where it is coming from. Where is the best place to get hubs from?
Don't be afraid of used hubs. Justin at lucky 8 can get used hubs as new ones are ridonkulous $$$. I just bought a rear one from him with the ABS sensor for $120. Also call roverguy.com. This ebay dude has used hubs too and a couple ABS sensors:
