I changed the oil in the rear end of my F150 at 203k with Amsoil 75W140, it now has 228k and while underneath the other day I noticed this spot on the axle, it isnt wet. Is this a sign of a leaking seal?
It is but it's fine to be honest. That looks like a few drops worth and it isn't something that's going to get a lot worse suddenly. I'd just top it off and watch it.
Very normal. Virtually zero you can do about it. You'd have to replace the entire rear which would be foolish. Don't try running a full weld unless you know what you're doing -- warping the entire housing is the more likely result
