Back when I messed w/ford Lightnings it was not uncommon for them to crack. People also stripped the little bolt that holds them down.

It's been a while, but I vaguely remember finding similar on what appeared to be the original coils on my '02 V6. It was semi-translucent amber and was more like a sealer on that seam, not adhesive used for repair.
