One of the byproducts of the combustion process is water. Another is carbon. When the engine is warm this water will leave the muffler as water vapor. Some of the carbon will collect in the exhaust system. when the engine is working hard you may see some of the carbon glowing red as it is blown out of the muffler.
On a cold start the water condenses in the manifold and muffler. The water droplets are heavy enough to knock some of the carbon loose and it is carried out of the muffler with the water. Since you have liquid exiting the muffler rather than vapor it falls down on the hood leaving the spots of carbon rather than being carried away from the tractor.
