Is there any indication of tholin or oganic goo at the Huygens landing site or was it believed to be washed away by the methane rain?

"at most 15 minutes of available post-landing communication with the orbiter"

Ironically, a screw up forces a resdesign which gave us >6 times that. I wonder, if they'd have known about the dopper issue during PDR - would they have redesigned the misison as they have, or fixed the doppler issue's engineering. And if the former - would they then have considered some sort of modifications to instrumentation for the possibility of extended surface operations.
