Hi all took rear wheels off and noticed thickish oil dripping onto inside of wheel off wheel drum just after drive chain gator are there seals here that can be replaced any help much appreciated

You need to check the CV gaitors.
Likely there is a split/tear in the one over the joint at that wheel....What you're seeing is the grease being flung out of the CV joint with the wheel rotation.

You need to replace this soon. While you're at it check the inner on the same drive shaft and both gaitors on the other side too!
