What cause black smoke in the exhaust?

Black smoke is caused by the engine ~not~ burning all of its fuel. The most common cause of incomplete fuel burn is a clogged air filter, exhaust system (muffler) or injectors covered with carbon build-up. Another cause is too much fuel entering the engine to be burned due to either bad calibration or too heavy a load.

How will a hole in the exhaust cause black smoke?

Its a long shot but... If you have a leak in the exhaust before the oxygen sensors, the sensors will think the engine is running lean. The computer will compensate (from incorrect input data) by increasing fuel delivery, causing the air/fuel mixture to go rich. If the engine runs super rich the exhaust will be black, and very noticable when you accelerate.
