Tolkien even distinguished the Ravens of The Lonely Mountain and the Crows (that Balin did not trust).
Kangi Ska Resident Trickster & Wicked White Crebain Life is an adventure, not a contest. At night you can not tell if crows are black or white.

I don't think Tom Bombadil will have any role (nor did he in the White Council)
