Rear main seal

Leaking alot of tranny fluid, looks like it may be the rear main seal. Its sticking out about an 1-1/2". Do ya'll think it sliped out. It is as simple as taking the shaft out and pushing the rubber part back in Please help!!!!!

Thanks

I think there's a dust boot on the seal, that might be what you are seeing sticking out.

Replacement is as simple as dropping the driveshaft, popping out the old seal, and knocking in a new one.
