this quest is pretty easy. the Felhounds and Felguard Sentries around the mouth of the dark portal area both count towards this one. the drop rate was not too maddening.

A World of Warcraft quest in Blasted Lands. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.
The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
For a quest which includes the word copious in the log, you'd expect at least an 85% drop rate. It was more like 40%... if that.
This quest must no longer be available, as after returning to playing Retail after Shadowlands xpac the rim of the crater is no longer populated by felhounds and other demons, but it is crawling with orcs.

What to do
Description
Sharim wants demon blood. Speaking personally, the stuff does not even seem like blood to me - more like liquid rot - but that is of no consequence. Luckily for you, the area around the Dark Portal is crawling with demons. Infernals, felhounds, felguards... they've all got what you need, in copious, pustulent amounts.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Charred Granite of the Dark Portal
Kasim wants you to gather granite chips from these chunks of rock around the Dark Portal. I don't know what he'd want rocks for, but I have my suspicions, and they're not pleasant ones. Use this pick and look for small outcroppings of rock along the edge of the portal's blast radius.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Enhancing the Stone
<Grimeo finishes packing the materials up in a neatly-wrapped package.> That's all that the gnome asked of us. When you see him, make sure you let him know that this task ends my debt. I will not suffer his requests any longer.
