I noticed on my old Accord, the stuff under the hood didn't look like anything ever touch it from the outside, but on my brand new Civic, after a week of rainy weather, there's like all kind of mud splatter under the hood and on the engine.

Also wait til the engine cools down too. At least 2-3 hours after driving.
Also yes the engine needs to be exposed to the air - that's how internal combustion engines work
