The liquid that runs down the bore does get into the joints and some ends up in the space between the tenons and sockets. It's generally thought to be good practice to remove it before putting the clarinet away.....and....that it's a good idea to use something other than your swab.
The white plumbers joint sealers that contain teflon is interesting. They used to use plain white lead paste.
Some Techs. rub paraffin into new corks. Some cork grease ends up in the lining of your case.

Years ago some players used lard and some switched to Crisco when it came on the market but discovered that the horn played sharper......because Crisco was Shortening.
