I wonder is a former owner of the house was thinking he was sealing a gap and used roofing tar on it

But that smells....he says no smell.

No smell??
Nope, no smell.

Consistency like liquid?  Sticky?

BTW...I think it's funny that you just smelled some black caulk.   :rofl2:  (sorry..couldn't help myself).

At the break where it is leaking, it is like a liquid honey. By the time it gets to the register, it is dry to the touch.

You would be surprised what contractors shove down ducting. One newer house I bought was brutal, had to take most of the duct work apart in the basement to clean them out and re-seal before the renos. facking pigs.
