Here is an extended hint for the first conjectured formula. As in Timothy Budd's answer let $w=w(q)$ denote the (formal) solution of $q=\frac{w}{f(w)}$. Write the sum in the exponential above as \begin{align*} \sum_{n>0} \frac{q^n}{n}\Big(\sum_{j>0}[z^{n+j}]\{f(z)^n\} w^j\Big) \end{align*} and rewrite the inner sums as \begin{align*} \sum_{j>0}[z^{n+j}]\{f(z)^n\} w^j =\frac{1}{w^n}\Big(f(w)^n -\sum_{j=0}^{n-1}[z^j]\{f(z)^n\}w^j\Big) -[z^n] \{f(z)^n\} \end{align*} Note that \begin{align*} \sum_{n>0} \frac{q^n}{n}[z^n]\{f(z)^n\}=\log\big(f(w)\big) \end{align*} and that the remaining sum can be written as \begin{align*} \sum_{n>0} \frac{1}{n} [u^{n-1}]\Big\{\frac{1}{1-u} \big(1-\frac{f(uw)^n}{f(w)^n}\big)\Big\} \end{align*} Summing up and evaluating the residue now gives the value $-\log\big(1-q\,f^\prime(w)\big)$ for this sum, as follows: \begin{align*} &\sum_{n>0} \frac{1}{n} [u^{n-1}]\Big\{\frac{1}{1-u} \big(1-\frac{f(uw)^n}{f(w)^n}\big)\Big\}\\ &= [u^{-1}]\Big\{\frac{1}{1-u}\big(-\log(1-\frac{1}{u}) +\log(1-\frac{f(uw)}{uf(w)})\big)\Big\}\\ &= [u^{-1}]\Big\{\frac{1}{1-u}\Big(\log\big(\frac{1-\frac{f(uw)}{uf(w)}}{1-\frac{1}{u}}\big)\Big)\Big\}\\ \end{align*} Now substitute $u=z+1$ and use the residue composition rule (for formal Laurent series, see e.g. Goulden/Jackson, *Combinatorial Enumeration*, Thm 1.2.2). \begin{align*} &=[z^{-1}]\Big\{-\frac{1}{z}\log\Big(\frac{1+z-\frac{f((1+z)w)}{f(w)}}{z}\Big)\Big\}\\ &=[z^{0}]\Big\{-\log\Big(\frac{1+z-\frac{f((1+z)w)}{f(w)}}{z}\Big)\Big\}\\ &=-\log\big(1-qf^\prime(w)\big) \end{align*} Finally, note that \begin{align*} \frac{1}{f(w)}\frac{1}{1-q\,f^\prime(w)}= \frac{q^2 w^\prime}{w^2}\;\;. \end{align*}
