Reminds me of the old solid tub Norge washers. The seal under the agitator block drive would go bad and they would spit oil all over the clothes. I assume that's what it is with this one too.

That is oil from the transmission and the only way I have ever fixed this issue was to replace the transmission and the hub and seal kit. This requires quite a bit of labor and also knowledge of a Speed Queen. If it was roaring during the spin, the bearing may need replacing as well.
