I agree with King on this.

I would have wanted to see that engine disassembled before the test.

I expect to see the same thing due to operating conditions, service intervals and other factors that would produce the same amount of sludge.

The high compression in the LT Works extremely well with E-85.

Ring seal, is a big factor on oil contamination along with PCV efficiency.
