This is a known error in the LGEO part.
Open lg_6081.inc in a text editor. You will see that there are two lines like:
#declare lg_6081 =
Change the second instance into
#declare lg_6081_clear =

In my lg_3650.inc I have added these lines a the end of the file:
/* temp fix for shortcoming of suffixed part names in L2P_ELMT.TAB */
#declare lg_3650 = lg_3650a;
#declare lg_3650_clear = lg_3650a_clear;

The lg_32009.inc has 2x4 errors, repeat this twice:
Change
#declare LENGTH = 6-4*MIR
into
#declare LENGTH = 5-4*MIR
Change
matrix <-1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,-4*LG_BRICK_WIDTH,0,0>
into
matrix <-1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,-3*LG_BRICK_WIDTH,0,0>
Change
translate <-8*LG_BRICK_WIDTH,0,0>
into
translate <-7*LG_BRICK_WIDTH,0,0>
Change
translate <8*LG_BRICK_WIDTH, 0, 0>
into
translate <7*LG_BRICK_WIDTH, 0, 0>

You can add lights to your scene by inserting light.dat into the model,
or by specifying -lg/-lc options to L3P. It's trial and error to get good lighting...
