If my understanding is correct, for "squarefree part" can be "squarefree kernel" in other cases, the generating Dirichlet series is $${\zeta(2s)\zeta(s-1)\over\zeta(2s-2)}=\prod_p\biggl(1+{p\over p^s}+{1\over p^{2s}}+{p\over p^{3s}}+\cdots\biggr)=\sum_n{\bar s(n)\over n^s}$$ alternating $1$ and $p$ as the coefficients, which is a $\zeta$ quotient as indicated. The residue at $s=2$ is $\zeta(4)/\zeta(2)={\pi^4/90\over\pi^2/6}={\pi^2\over 15}$, so that by Perron's formula $$\sum_{n\le X} \bar s(n)={1\over 2\pi i}\int_{(\sigma)}{\zeta(2s)\zeta(s-1)\over\zeta(2s-2)}{X^s ds\over s} \sim {\zeta(4)\over 2\zeta(2)}X^2={\pi^4/90\over2\pi^2/6}X^2={\pi^2\over 30}X^2,$$ with usual conditions about convergence in vertical strips, which are OK here. Dividing by $X^2$ gives the desired limit.
