This black stuff is from an old filter. You can remove the last bits of it by taking out the vents in the overhead front section of the duct work and vacuuming the duct work out. Most of the stuff ends up in the front section. To remove the vents carefully put a screwdriver in the side of the vent, there is a plastic spring clip that holds the vent in, and pry out.
