I noticed a leak behind my rear drum brakes. Anyone know what I should search for to fix this?
thanks!

Wheel cylinder could be leaking, but it's probably the axle seal
 
Cylinder seems fine. I’m having trouble locating the seal. Every store seems to have something that looks different than what I have. Here’s some photos.

Check Rockauto for your vehicle and seal pics.
 
None of the ones they are selling have the flange.

Yup, they've made them cheaper by eliminating the flange...

You have to be more careful just to set them flush.
Not a big issue when you're doing it manually.​
Bigger issue when automated machine was doing 1k/day when your axle was built.​
