Different color streaking and blobs after swapping HOTEND

Printer went bad months ago, Nozzle jammed up + hotend and Extruder assembly base filled up with molten PLA.  Swapped out the Hotend and Nozzle and cleaned up the base as best I could.

Was able to get new hotend, 1st layer setup perfectly.   My issue is that while printing marble pla, the printer spits out some streaks of black PLA and also send a 1/8 inch blobs of black PLA that will create a crash detection fault.    

Do I just continue printing until the bad stuff clears out or should I replace the whole Extruder assembly ?

.6mm nozzle

.20mm layer height

I suspect molten plastic is running down from the top of the heater block.

When changing the hotend & nozzle did you pay particular attention to the diagrams at the bottom of this page:
