If true, did it kill your MAF? What model of car is this, please?

Thanks!
First this is a 1990 420sel,The trash you are looking at is varnish,and soot from a very rich condition.I split the intake today and have more pics for all to see. The first shows soot,The second is badly varnished,third is cleaned The last is another view of the soot. all the o-rings are hard
