Default Oil leak from axles?

Well i look under my car yesterday and it looks like i have an oil leak coming from behind my mufflers. It doesn't seem to be leaking now, and only leaks after HARD driving (I was driving the car pretty hard yesterday). Could this be due to the axle seals or am i gonna have to replace my axles? ALso since it's cold, could it be that it caused my seals to shrink? Any of u guys have any info? This is the worst possible time for this to happen since i went to school fulltime and left work lol. How much am i looking at here? If i go to the dealer, they'll probly charge me $100 just for the diagnosisHeres some pics i took: Thanks!
