As bad as the “sooty blotch” is on the exterior of the fruit I cannot believe the inside wasn’t wormy with the coddling moth larva. Perhaps you have found a worm proof quince! Although I have grown quince I just learned that some varities have a mottled bark and elongated fruit. Thanks.

It’s common quince. The fruit can be either oval or apple-like. http://www.walterreeves.com/gardening-q-and-a/common-quince-identification/
