Rubber? No.

If it's black, it is unburned fuel. Common for VTEC motors, and even more so if you have an exhaust and drive it in VTEC most of the time.

yes id have to agree more than likely unburnt fuel, does it leave any residue/streaks when u wipe it off? check underneath for any possible leaks, granted im sure we know what burnt or burning oil smells like so id say if u dont have that foul smell while driving your good.
