forget waiting to see it drip down the wheel. pop the ABS sensor and check that way. There is a pool of oil in there working its way through your bearing and out the other side. If this goes on too long the bearings will have been washed clean of all grease and they will fail in the near future. Did you read the entire thread and watch the video? If you don't get the seal on the retainer, it will leak again. It may require a trip to the machine shop to get the retainer moved.
And don't forget the obvious. Make sure the axle vent is open and free of any dirt.
