Starting to look a bit more like a leaking axle shaft seal.
What does the leakage smell like?
Also, hard to tell from that photo but it almost appears that the gap between the knuckle and the steering arm is wider than it should be?? Are all the stud nuts still tight? Did you completely clean off those mating surfaces (rust, dirt) before reassembly, reuse the original shim, condition of that shim, ??
Could you clean that area off well (maybe use an aerosol can of Brake cleaner, wear eye protection) including the studs, nuts, and mating surfaces between the bottom of the knuckle and the steering arm. Then post up another photo.
