Black blob midprint, gunk on hotend

Hi,

Something happend during my last print while I was absent. Can someone point out what could have caused this and if it's possible to prevent it?

I came back to my print and the hotend looking like seen on the pictures below. The print obviously finished and the hotend was clean before I started the print.

I need more information.  Which end of the print is the Gash on?  Maybe a wider image of the print.

Just realized the lack of info, sorry. The print is roughly 13cm in height and took almost 10 hours, had a good amount of support. The material was Prusa PETG. The mishap occurred around 1cm below the top.
