Default Crap from the tailpipe

I was just recently doing some minor inspections of things on the car and noticed when you rev it to about 2-3K, that's all I do in nuetral anyways, I get this black dusty looking crap from the tailpipe. Well, it seems to dusty but when I wipe it off my hands it's more like an oil. So my qeustion is, is this o.k. or do I need to worry about this?

Well it has seemed to go away now. I think it had to do with the fact I was having a problem with the coil and the power connections but when I fixed this is when it started to get this crap from the exhuast. Almost as if it was cleaning off all the stuff that was built up from a bad spark.

It may appear oily becuase there's water in your exaust. What happens when you mix ash and water together?
