Question What the heck is this on the AC compressor?

So I have another thing to deal with now. I recently noticed that the AC compressor has developed a heavy brake dust like substance. It started a couple of months back. My first thought was clutch dust but seems excessive to me. Anyone know what this could be?

I really don't know, but my first guess would be clutch as well.

I am going to remove the belt and replace the leaking Power Steering pump soon. I will use this opportunity to remove the clutch and examine the wear.

Ok so I missed up. I was on a bit of a rush while trying to remove the AC clutch, and I broke the center stud. I was not even suppose to be fixing the AC clutch was in the middle of removing a Power Steering pump when I got side tracked. So now I have yet another problem to fix.


I think I can still remove the clutch but idk if I can put it back.

Now that's unfortunate. I'm not sure how you fix that, but I hope it's not too difficult!
