Default 89 S10 4 x 4 Front Axle Leak

I found a large leak under my truck and determined that it was from the front axle. Does any one know if it is OK to drive it in 2WD only? I have the Chiltons on this but I can't find the fill or drain ports. Thanks.

Even in 2WD, the components in the axle housing are turning. I'd get it looked at ASAP.

Thank you for responding - I went about 50 miles on 3 trips but I going to have it repaired or replaced ASAP. My daily driver was in the shop too!
