I think it's Cadmium Oxide, I'd use caution around it.

I had an Airline that was about that bad, I cleaned most of it off with Naval Jelly and water, I couldn't clean the underside this way so I left it alone.
It stunk pretty badly.

The stuff is very toxic (and Carcinogenic) don't wire brush it or create dust, probably not a good idea to get it on your skin.

Wikipedia has some info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadmium_oxide
