A piece of footage/image has bled into the rest of my precomps

 So basically i've got a glitch where if there's nothing inside a precomp or the playhead goes to a part of the precomp with nothing in it then this guy from another precomp i have will show up, i can't simply put something in it because with one of my assets i require 2 empty precomps, I tried deleting the source footage and precomps and even saving and leaving after the fact but nothing is working.

There he is! I was looking for him!

Sorry...What you're describing is strange, maybe there is a very short chunk of him in the timeline of a frame or two. Maybe you could use the zoom slider on the bottom of the timeline to see if that is the case.

Clean out the disk caches and also check your hardware acceleration stuff. Images getting stuck is a sign of cache corruption and a misconfigured hardware acceleration often plays a part.
