Trunk lid grease leak?

Hey guys, I don't know why but after work today, there was a whole bunch of grease coming out from the lid of the trunk/hatch, it travelled down to the part where u stick ur hand in the hole to open the trunk. I noticed that it was leaking from the holes underneath the hatch, is this weird? Couldn't google anything on it.

when its fresh its like pale yellow coloured and after a while I think its just black cuz I wiped it off when i washed my car once. Theres just soo much at once!

Hmmm I really don't know. Have you tried to trace it back to the source? Maybe try and match it with some other fluids to see if you can find a match. Good luck.

There's plenty to do outside my room but I choose not to!

They rust proofed inside the trunk aswell. My trunk on my civic was the same way, I spend about 1 hour on Monday cleaning all that crap off of the trunk.
