It's always a good idea to check any fluid on our cars. If the plug has a minor leak, just screw it back on with some teflon tape on the threads.
As for the pinion leak: Welcome to the F-Body world. They leak like crazy, even a new pinion seal will start to leak after a month or so. If the leak is bad, then have it replaced asap! But if it's a drop or two every once in awhile, no need to worry.
If there are any signs of the rear diff cover leaking, then go get a new gasket and replace it. That's an easy job!sigpic
