Bim Man,

You have to delete all of the imported objects from the drawing and then the system will automatically delete the object styles from the list under imported objects.

Bim Man,

There must be a imported object floating around in the model somewhere in order for Revit not to delete the information. You can not just delete the information from the object styles setting area. Take a look in the drawing to see if you can find the stray imported obeject, it could be like trying to find a needle in a hay stack if you know what I mean.
