Oil leak, rear main?

Hey Guys, I'm working on a friends 93 5.9 Cummins and it has a Oil leak.
This truck leaks engine oil when it is running from the bell housing area, it is pretty bad. Is there any thing else on the back of the block to leak other than the rear main? The valve cover is dry, its either the rear main or a oil plug??? on the back of the block. Any tips, advice?

I would almost put money on the rear main being the problem.
