In the photo there is a black area on the end of the insert that appears to be some sort of cut out. What is that exactly? Its not solid?

This is, basically, the same insert that comes withe any SawStop. It just hasn't been cut, yet. If you have a SawStop, you'll see that the dark area is solid material, but it has the slit needed for the guard mount or riving knife - something many ZCI's do not have. It is indented a little.

Did anyone have any trouble cutting the insert to accommodate setting the blade to 45 degrees?

None at all - if you only want to cut 45 then set to 45 and lower the blade and insert. Then turn the blade on and raise the blade. You will now have a zero clearance 45 insert.

Any issues using this insert for Dado setup?

Absolutely none. Works great. Seriously, I use it a lot and no problems. Just make sure you protect yourself because the dust comes flying when you send the dado blades through the insert to size it.
