Help me solve this leak *pic*
The leak starts from the differential mount? I got under there and looked... no liquid anywhere around or above this rubber "motor mount" essentially. Only visible drip lines originating at the mount itself. It's thin like gasoline... but dark brown/blackish in color. Does that mount have some kind of liquid in it that I don't know about? I thought it was a simple rubber mount with a metal ring around it.
Any help here?

do you think the mounts rupture from age,vibration,from dryness? and what could be done to preserve them?silicone spray? or just replace them and live with it.

It's not common for them to fail. Honda has used liquid filled mounts on several vehicles. I've not been able to narrow down a pattern of age/milage they fail at. Some do early in the car's life, others last the life of the car.
I wouldn't blame driving it hard being the cause. I've seen diff mounts from a turbo S that haven't had any issues.
