Replace Gearbox or Axle bearing?.... Help!!

Here's the story. I'm on my way to work shifting through the gears from a red light. Soon as I hit 3rd, I hear this fast clicking noise. I'm almost late during morning rush hour traffic @6:30 am. so I keep going. When my day is over and I'm walking back to my car, I see this trail of fluid heading straight to my car that ends in a puddle of gear oil. I get my car towed home and jack up the front wheels and put it in first gear. Here is what happens as all remaining fluid leaks out. The noise sort of follows the engine RPM so as the revs increase in each gear.
