Foam like froth or coffee color liquid no bubbling? Condensation or water? I'm not familiar with the seals on an E, but if possible, seals leak both ways, contamination from running in mud and water? You can dip a magnet into the housing into the sump and check for metal fines or bits. If just condensation, I believe its possible to flush and replace the oil when done.

Way out on a limb with this one, and disregard same, unfounded speculation, but with these finals w/tapered shaft etc., something going awry, loose, bearing or something, oil bath splashing or air en-training it somehow ?
