will MT-90 leak... read my situation

Let's say there's a possibility of a leak... would MT-90 leak out more because it's thin or something?? I only say that because i have the differential bearings prob... and i wonder if the tranny oil has anything to do w/ it because the car was running fine for 120k miles w/ the MT-90, then when i had the Nissan maintenance done, they put the regular tranny oil back in... and now w/ 140k miles, it started giving me that problem all of a sudden and one day the tranny started leaking LIKE HELL at the drive axel. After that, i had the oil changed w/ regular tranny oil still and it stopped leaking Hasnt' leaked since.... and if it did, it'd be only one drop. I found out it leaks alot when the tranny is hot and the whining sound in 1st, 2nd, and NOW 3rd, happens only when the tranny is hot. What do you guys think??
