Excess fluid is not causing the leaks, just makes them show up.
Yes you'll need to drain the fluid. Probably needs to be done
anyway. Flushing with diesel is a great idea. Being the trans
takes 13 gallons of gear oil it will take about the same amount of
diesel to get a thorough flushing done.

I drained the oil in my SH, changes all the seals, then flushed
with diesel. Found a newly replaced seal leaking and redid it. If
they don't leak with the diesel they won't leak with gear oil.

Check the archives on changing the seal. Not a bad project. I
haven't done an M but my SH was easy.
