Hello Melanie;

You do not have a refrigerant leak. Refrigerant is clear in color.

You have a water leak. The black sticky substance is either coming from your bottom condenser cooling coil or just general dirt under your refrigerator that accumulates over time. The coil under your refrigerator collects dirt as well.

You need to pull the refrigerator out so you can get behind it.
Unscrew the bottom back cover. Inspect for the water leak source. Your condensate drain pan may be leaking or dislodged.

The water line to your ice maker may be leaking.

Your water supply shut off valve to your refrigerator may be leaking.

It sounds like you have a leak (dry rot plastic tubing) on the ice maker water line. The leaking water is being picked up by you condenser fan near the water valves and probably causing the noise.
First, turn the water shut off valve to the refrigerator off.
You have a dangerous situation here. You need to stop the water leak. If the water leak gets to the electrical components of your unit, well it is dangerous!
You will be safe for now if you shut off the water.
You need a skilled technician to fix the problem. Just shut the water supply to the refrigerator off.
