The DOM inspector inspects the DOM. view > souce shows you the HTML that the browser received. The DOM could have been modified by javascript, in which case the HTML you see in FB is not present in HTML source files. A server program, such as a jsp include or tag could have generated the HTML from a program. If the code you wish to remove can be found by FB DOM inspector, and cannot be found by view > source, then the code was generated by script. This could be either innerHTML, createElement/appendChild, or document.write. It's hard to say much more without looking at the code, but that should get you in the right direction (if you haven't already figured it out).
