Drove it to work this morning and it didnt stall, which is nice. Also replaced sway bar qd pins yesterday and got the tires to correct pressure.

Differential or transfer case breather, I think , look at the top right corner of the differential housing from the back, around 2 o'clock if think of it like a clock, and see if there is a vent tube if theres not that's where it goes.

Bingo. It's a breather for sure. Bulbous thingy looks like a check valve so I don't believe it's from the transfer case or any axle.

Funny part is that it only leaked as the weather cooled.

It looks like a broken vacuum check valve or breather. Does your XJ have a CAD D30 axle?

After 5 months of a friend attempting to fix it, he gave up and i had him tow it to a local shop. Im out of the state or i wouldve done it myself. I have a bad feeling itll be an electrical gremlin that will cost me
