It's mainly dust that has gotten by the filter.
Personally, I don't really like K&N or AEM, they just let too much crap through. That black crap on the impeller is a combination of dust and oil and it usually pits the blades a bit. Nothing to be REALLY concerned about, but......
If anything, swap the filter itself for an S&B or an AFE Pro-Guard. They d a much better job.
As for spraying that filter, is it a paper or gauge? AEM has both kinds.

that impeller is not hitting I finally got my computer to zoom and its fine that is how it is made... Like Coaltrain says get a different Air filter That air filter is letting dirt get by...
Plus buying a K&N from the auto parts store isn't going to be the correct filter for your set up At O'reillys they only sell the direct drop in filter for the factory box.. not sure about Autozone or Napa I drive right by them to go to O'reilly's
