Its metal clutch material alright all metal is black when you get it in fine enough particles. The E4OD has way more clutches relative to the amount of fluid in it, so it needs a pan magnet and a finer filter than just the metal screen that the earlier C6s had. Just wipe it off and put it back in. As long as you don't find any larger chunks, you have nothing to worry about. It looks like a lot more material than it really is because its suspended in ATF. Was it all over the pan, or just on the magnet?
I'm gonna say no about the dielectric grease but I'm not 100% sure. Guessing there is a difference for a reason. Petroleum jelly is what was recommended in my baumann shift kit. When you lower the separator plate, you will see the check balls resting on it, and that will give you an idea for just how easy it is to reinstall them the same way. Steady hands are all it really takes.
