Define $(\ell,k)$-smough numbers to be numbers that have prime divisors $p$ of form either $p|\ell!$ or $k<p$.

1. Given an $\ell$ is there a maximum $k$ above which there is no $n$ such that $q(n(n+1))$ is $(\ell,k)$-smough where $q(x)=x(x^2-1)$?

2. Is there a fast algorithm to find $n$ for a given $\ell,k$ such that $q(n(n+1))$ is $(\ell,k)$-smough when such $n$ exists or return $n=\infty$?


----------------

Interesting cases at $n<100$ are at $17,31,59,89,97$:

I doubt $k$ grows much if $\ell$ is fixed.
