Pull up the ERA owners only Jag Rear Suspension Service. Item #34 on the parts exploded view is the seal the can't be seen in your photo.
Be certain you have the correct vintage seal. A later seal in the earlier differential will leak. Ask me how I know.
No need for sealant on the surfaces you show. The hole shown will not drip oil if your seals are good.

John thanks for responding. Yes, I went down that road 18 months ago and I am aware of the two different seals. But the leak is not coming from the axle shaft. So are you saying that this hole might leak
oil if the axle seal is bad?
