OK all tech heads out there.....

So I went for a bush bash over the weekend that included one or 2 low level river crossings. When I say low I mean the water level was at about 1/2-way to the tyres. Realised this morning that my rear diff breather tube had dislodged from the nipple housing of the rear axle. D22 2013 model. What's the chances of a little water having gotten in and how would I ever know? I suspect the pressure of the fluids inside and the relatively low water level has unlikely done anything to worry about. I think the reason it came off is that I've recently upgraded to after market load leafs and the extra height bouncing did it.
 
Pretty easy to replace the diff oil to set your mind at ease. Just make sure you undo the filler plug before the drain plug...
