Case 580se water pump… crud on impeller

Hi I removed the water pump on my 580se and the fins are covered with this black crud, almost like hardened roof tar. It’s also on the round dish that the pump impeller sits in. Any ideas what this stuff is or where it came from ?

    My guess would be a overload of stop leak.
