But the ones we fought were made of flesh.

Correct.

"We should examine the area for any residual planar effect."

It is clear to almost all of you that there was a portal of some sort used in the Lakius ceremony.

[Asinjin]

"But did that black tentacle thing come through the portal?"

"Anyone know anything about Dagon?"

"Anyone know anything about Dagon?"

Thamolly says: "I doubt it came from the Plane of Water.  Why would it harm faithful of a water power?"  Russel says: "I know little of the planes.  Until my recent experience they held little interest for me and chronomancy works poorly off the material plane.  Maglore, Allanda, Ulik or Escalon would be those that I would ask.  Ben Dothan also."

[Asinjin]

"Can anyone detect lingering alignment?"

"Can anyone detect lingering alignment?"

Thamolly says:"if you cannot master diviner I doubt anyone can."

[Asinjin]

"It is easier for those of divine background.  I can, but it will take some time."

Ari has a pretty good know(planes) check...d20=12+19=31.

"Can anyone detect lingering alignment?"

Ari can detect lingering evil auras. He also has the planar ranger's "planar sense" which let's him determine the home plane of an outer planar creature with a Wis check (DC=20-HD of creature), if that applies.

How long do the aura's remain?

Dagon is pretty obscure. He is often referred to as an "Elder Evil". He is feared by the Tanari and is the lord of a vast water realm. He has many followers among the evil creatures of the deep.

How long do the aura's remain?

That depends on the level of evil.  Use the standard levels of evil for detect evil.

Lingering Aura: An evil aura lingers after its original source dissipates (in the case of a spell) or is destroyed (in the case of a creature or magic item). If detect evil is cast and directed at such a location, the spell indicates an aura strength of dim (even weaker than a faint aura). How long the aura lingers at this dim level depends on its original power:
Original Strength    Duration of Lingering Aura
Faint    1d6 rounds
Moderate    1d6 minutes
Strong    1d6x10 minutes
Overwhelming    1d6 days

Upon closer inspection the well only appears about waist deep on Ebian before the water changes color so the tentacle must have come from the portal.

Overwhelming. The well itself and the water radiate magic.
