To do it right replace the axle. You can find quick boots at auto parts stores but they are messy. One a boot starts to leak grease, water and dirt can enter and destroy the joint.

That is diff fluid, not joint grease, so need to go down the rabbit hole of if the diff seal lips just wore out on its own, or if the diff output shaft bearing went bad/has too much slop in it that caused the seal to fail, and diff needs to be pulled apart to replace the output shaft bearing as well.
