Well I took to trying to scrape around there again, the buildup is not as bad as it was when I did it, nothing new really accumulated. I'm not sure what it was but I'll continue to keep an eye on it. The bad smells aren't really there either.

I still have a small theory that says my former Amuse front pipe was causing it, only because there was an exhaust leak from the pipe not being totally flush with the stock header.
