Venting soot?

Hi All,

I would like to seek your advice with regards to the following.In the link that I've attached below,the SIA's A380 seems to have a black streak underneath its belly whereas the QANTAS A380 doesn't.Is there any explanation for such an occurrence?It seems to me that it is venting some sort of soot from the vent hole.Is there anyway this could be prevented?
