Unhappy What is this stuff???

What is this orange stuff?? I went to change out the carbon from my Mag canister, and saw this. It looks like rust but isn't. It was even on the carbon itself. It doesn't come off. It's like it is stained? Is it something the carbon is pulling from the water? I do my regular weekly water changes w/ RO/DI.
