so i was looking under my car today for no particular reason, and I see this.. i have no idea what it is or if its normal.. looks to be old oil.

2003 996 coupe 6 speed... only drive like 75 miles a week maximum, about 22k miles on the odometer.

any thoughts from any of the more experienced forum members? should i be concerned about anything?

Can't tell from the photo where this is located under your car, but maybe this is something your drove over and it was picked up by a tire and deposited? If this was true you would expect to find this same 'stuff' in at least one wheeel well, too.

Is it loose and easily brushed off, or?

it is located in the center of the rear portion of the car, near the oil filter (i think thats what it was, its the circular piece in the background right, highlighted by the yellow glow of the flashlight) and looks like it might be coming from somewhere above perhaps? dont have any way to get the car up on jacks/lift .. had to just shove a camera under there. :huh:
