A few days ago on this list someone inquired about black liquid leaking from
their diesel engine.
Before you tear your engine apart, you might want to read this article:

Look under the sub heading "Limit Idling".

You'll need Adobe Acrobat to read it but it talks about diesel slobber
caused by fuel condensing out of the exhaust at slow idle.
