Engines do that. In general the residue decreases after a few hours of runtime. Fairly common phenomenon. They also generally accept leaner mixture and make more power.

Look at it from their side: If Saito provides that info, for them it is safe to convey it to you. If Saito does not, it would require them to do measurements. Measurements take time and cost money,...

The black goo is not caused by your oil, but by the fact that a carburettor never produces a "perfect mixture", and that effect is amplified by unequal fuel distribution over the cylinders.
