Seepage is when liquid is being absorbed into to some kind of material (It is moving from one place to another, where it should not be present).
A leak is the the fact of of liquid being lost.
e.g. "There is a leak in the pipe and water is seeping into the wall/ ground/ woodwork. We need to resolve this problem of seepage."

Leak is usually used when there is a loss of material from a system that was created for moving that material. The material can be a liquid, gas or solid.
Seepage usually happens when a liquid slowly moves through an environment independent of an intended system for movement.
