From http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Leifnarr (see for more info); Bugs section:
If you find Leifnarr without getting the quest first, it may not update when you speak to Grosta, making it unable to be completed.
This bug is fixed by version 1.0 of the Unofficial Skyrim Patch.
You can fix it by using console command setstage e3ea5 30 - (This is what you may have to do - smr1957.)

Despite being named Leifnarr by his wife and the related quest, his corpse will be labeled as an unnamed "Nord".
This bug is fixed by version 1.0 of the Unofficial Skyrim Patch.

Unofficial Patches do not retroactively fix bugs.

I have found it best to go to the mill and speak with Grosta first. Then find Leifnarr. It can glitch out. With the Unofficial patch, it may work out.

I do the same go and talk to Grosta.
But not all know about this bug.

Did load one old save there I have cleared the dungeon and did have one nord.
Added the patch and did revisited it and the quest did start "go and tell Grosta"

That was how I found out. I didnt have the patch, and I found Leifnarr on a couple different playthoughs. Grosta never acknowleged him being missing. But, it would work the other way, without the patch.
