I think someone posted about this exact problem within a month ago.
Can't remember what was replaced.

That is the boot going bad on the driveshaft more than likely from the looks of it letting grease from the CV leak out. It spins, gets hot, grease flings out.
Easy repair about 50 bucks for the repair kit
have to remove driveshaft etc.
KJs have the same issues of course

Oh parts are available from driveshaftparts # ME807 I assume is the same as the KJs
