Jérôme Duriez proposed the following answer:
Hi,

I think adding

vol = O.bodies[-1].state.mass / O.materials['rubber].density # hard to
test by myself with this sort of non-working minimal script ;-)

will give you in "vol" the volume of that clump, as considered by YADE
in your workflow.

Since your clump looks to involve overlapping members, note though this
volume value is wrong. Having a correct value would require to include
"discretization" considerations [*] and maybe another kind of YADE
workflow
