It may be a little rich, but fuel from the exhaust is normal. As for the idle, that could also be that you are a little rich. Turn your HSN in 1/8 turn at a time and watch the temps driving around between each turn. Don't go over 270 if you can help it.

also take off the exhaust deflector as i find it helps if you are running the stock pipe

Oil from the exhaust is pretty normal. How much there is depends more on the oil content of the fuel than anything else. You DO NOT want raw fuel coming from the exhaust. That's a sure sign of being way to rich. However, the issue you have with high rpm when stopping and then the engine going to a ormal idle is an issue more with the lsn than the hsn. Here's an article written by the late Ron Paris that explains it pretty good. Yeah, I know the print is small but it's well worth reading anyway.
