The green stuff in a lobster is called tomalley (many people also call it "shmutz.") The tomalley is the liver and pancreas of a lobster and, when cooked it is a green color.
Tomalley is the liver and pancreas of the lobster. It looks like a green paste inside the abdominal cavity of a cooked lobster. It is considered a delicacy and many people consider it the best part of a lobster. It can be eaten scooped from the cooked lobster or can be used to flavor sauces.
Note: this is often misspelled "tamale" as in the Mexican dish, since this is how tomalley is pronounced. Or it is also sometimes spelled "tomale". "
There may be a black substance also in the lobster's abdominal cavity. The black substance in a cooked lobster is called the coral and is found only in the female lobster because it is the eggs (or roe) of the lobster. Those who like tomalley are usually big fans of also eating the coral.
You may also see an orange or red stripe running down the middle of the back of the tail. This is the digestive tract. It is the color of what the lobster has eaten and it will be larger or smaller depending on when the lobster last ate. Before eating the tail, peel off the digestive tract. It will not be harmful to eat after the lobster is cooked, but may be gritty and not very tasty.

It's difficult to say definitively from your description why your particular oysters seemed different from those you've had in the past, but I think I can perhaps put your mind at ease a bit. If by "poop" you mean fecal material, I'm virtually certain that's not the case - oysters, and bivalve molluscs in general, have a very simple digestive system and there's simply no way anatomically for oysters to accumulate fecal material in their bodies.
Generally, what makes oysters seem fatter and richer at some times is gonadal tissue - simply put, the majority of the oyster's body is gonad (the "bellies" that people refer to on fried clams are also), and a nice fat oyster is getting ready to spawn. I'd probably say that's what's going on with yours except that spawning in the mid-Atlantic is a springtime activity triggered by rising water temperature, and that's clearly not what's happening this time of year.
The green stuff is called purple moss but it is really green. They really call it a coo coo clock.

Does pearls form from rain drops?
No, pearls do not form from raindrops. Pearls are formed inside oysters when an irritant (such as a piece of sand or debris) becomes trapped inside the oyster. The oyster then secretes layers of nacre around the irritant to form a pearl over time.
