If it was me, I'd ignore the differential until I'd made sure that it wasn't something less disheartening. I'd carefully check all 3 U-joints (actually if I were keeping this car I'd replace them). I'd also get me a new rubber doughnut center bearing support and replace the bearing (about $8). Also check your motor mount and transmission mount rubbers.
Only after I'd done this would I turn to the rear end (axle bearings?)

Is there a lot of 90 wt slung onto the body right around the pinion flange? replace that seal. Have you removed the filler plug in the dif and stuck your finger in to see how far down the 90 wt is? Might be very informative to spring for a dif cover gasket and pull the cover and see what kind of goop is in the bottom of the dif.
