So this guide says 8 are needed for Leaping Flame
4 are needed for Sparking Axe
6 are needed for Okinaga's Flame Vent
2 are needed for Double Divine Abduction
That's only 20 Black Gunpowder... But you can buy them from Anayama the Peddler for 150. 150*20=3000 gold.
If there is more than this guide is saying, that's on them, lol.

It also drops by enemies at Hirata Estate. Ring the Demon Bell and then farm at the Main Hall idol. You can get Scrap Iron, Mibu Balloon of Wealth, Oil, Pellets, Dousing Powder, Black Gun Powder. Or run from the Estate Path idol all the way up to the the Main Hall. You will get 1 skill point and 1300 gold per run. You can get the Black Gunpowder also from the small enemy at the Bell Demon's Temple idol.

You can get a lot by killing small centipede demons, at least I got a lot from the ones which are near the girl divine heir, in the cave.

This page lists only half of the tools that need this - there are 4 more:
1 is needed for the Spring-Load Firecracker (the upgrade that lets you do a spin to set them off all around you. Pretty forgettable, I know)
3 are needed for the Long Spark Firecracker
4 for the Spring-load Flame Vent
2 for the Aged Feather Mist Raven
This brings the total you need for all upgrades up to 30, which is for some reason also less than the needed Adamantite Scraps (32 by my count) and only 1 more than the Yellow Gunpowder (29). The prostetics are REALLY into metal I guess.
