New Bearing Leaking Grease?

New Bearing Leaking Grease?
2009 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT, rear wheel drive
Hello All,
I purchased a front wheel bearing and hub assembly from Rock Auto a few months ago and noticed a few days ago that it appears to be leaking grease from the backside. The bearing/hub assembly is a sealed unit and has no grease fittings.
I know sometimes a bearing may leak grease from the manufacturer after being installed (due to over-packing) and that is normal. I however would think that only applies to bearings that have grease fittings? So is this normal or not?
Thanks,
Ralph

Yup, its leaking. Best to replace it now.
