964 Oil In Trailing Arm

[drola]

I was bleeding the clutch on my 1990 C2 and noticed the hole on the bottom of the driver side trailing arm was full of some oil or grease. Not quite as thick as grease but nasty black like grease.
Was trying to see where any black stuff could be getting in there. As far as I know there’s no grease or oil in the bushing. That only leaves the cv axle. The boot looks fine. The axle itself looks fine. Is there any way for the grease in the outer cv to get into the trailing arm? All while looking normal?

Rear wheel bearing maybe ??

i could but there is nothing to see. from outward appearances it all looks perfectly normal. the only reason i realized something was wrong was because i rubbed my arm on the bottom of the trailing arm and it came up all covered in grease. it wasn't dripping from the hole or anything. but it was definitely there.
the more i think about it the more it makes sense that the wheel bearing seal must have gone. it is not making any noise yet but i imagine it will.
need to sort this out as i plan on driving this car up to werks reunion at amelia island this weekend. 5 hour drive.
