Anyone notice SWEATING at their transfer case?

I was under my truck the other day. i noticed sweating on both output seals of the transfer case. (no drips anywhere) > Is this normal? I want to check level but i need a special allan socket. Does any1 know the size of this allen socket to open the fill and level plug of the transfer case?
