Shit. This is first time attempt. When my friend rolled it some base went up on the sides of the jar, I thought maybe the top layer was from the base stuck on the sides just slowly coming down through the naptha and taking a while to go all the way through but im doubting that idea. He did have it in a gallon container for 100g bark but decided this was too big to suck the naptha up out of so moved it to a 1.5quart.

What kind of dark are we talking about?
You know a picture is worth a thousand words.... right?
But yeah, describe it in better detail at least.

Sorry. Ok the base at the bottom(water/lye/MHRB), well there appears to be a tiny layer of that above the naptha layer at the top. So its all normal except for this very thin layer of the Base that is covering the top of the naptha layer.

Well, it's definitely not the base layer as that isn't possible.
Did you open the jar, or is this judging by looking through the glass?

Well, you could proceed as normal, but filter the solvent after you pull it.
If you didn't do anything weird, like use coleman fuel or drain opener that isn't 100% lye... or use a container or tools made of toxic or hazardous materials that could leech into the extraction and react with the chemicals, you shouldn't have anything to worry about as far as safety is concerned (besides the normal safety concerns of an extraction).
That said, something does not sound right about this, or your description. Draw the naphtha out and put it in a separate container, then see what happens.

Hmmm, ya im pretty sure I got all the right chems. V,M+P Naptha and 100% lye http://www.acehardware.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2845800&kw=lye&origkw=lye&searchId=52429705424 From ace hardware. I added alittle salt and extra lye to see if that will help. IM going to pull tmrw either way. Any advice for making sure I just get Naphtha and not the (water/lye mix) when im sucking it out? I plan on doing the sodium carbonate wash aswell

when you pull the naphtha, put it into another jar and let it settle for a while. This will ensure any remnants of the water layer sink to the bottom.
Do this in a separate jar, before you do the s. carb wash.
