Should oil from the upper gear assembly reservoir leak into the u-joint bellows through drive gear assembly. I noticed the oil leaking due to hole in u-joint bellows, which leaked onto lower unit.

No, the upper yoke seal has failed and usually there is a deep groove worn into the yoke as well. Replace the yoke and seal.

After you replace the yoke seal on your drive you'll want to replace that bellows too.
