"I have not had this motor in

"I have not had this motor in the water for a few years, decided yesterday to put cup on it and crank her up. Ran fairly well, but noticed a pretty oily residue forming inside the prop/exhaust. Never noticed this before, but have never really paid attention to it either. Is this normal?"
