Default shell valley rear axle question.

Hi everyone

I noticed today I have gear oil leaking from the axle tube right behind the disk brake. the kit came with no seals and the instructions mentioned nothing about a seals (its only leaking from one side). my questions are... should there be seals? if not then how can I stop the leak? I was thinking some RTV around the outer part of the bearing before I push it into the tube but I don't know if that will work.

By the way, Its a ford 9" rear.

thanks for the help.
