Residue on gas tube near front sight

Finally was able to put a few rounds thru my new BCM middy today. When I got home I noticed some residue around the gas tube near the front sight. Didn’t experience any problems - ejection was 3-4 oclock. I know pressures are high and fits aren’t perfect, but is it normal for some gas to blow out of this area?

Here’s a pic:

It’s normal.

Normal.

Normal is good !! Thanks for the quick responses y’all.
