i dont ever use lucas oil stabilizer in anything. in regular dino oil, its one thing but not in synthetics. reason being is that synthetics and blends already have stabilizers in them that can be counteracted by the lucas stuff and actually cause degredation of your oils protective properties.

Should I be worried or is it other additives that can cause these build ups?

what kind of oil are you using? what filter? what kind of vehicle? how much oil is burning thru the exhaust?
