I assume you're using `org-babel-comint-with-output' to collect results?
If you're still having issues I'd suggest looking at some of the other
uses of this function in other ob-*.el files for example of ways that
it's use can be customized through code in the BODY section.

Hopefully ":results output" is already working and it is just ":results
value" which requires more work. "results value" external evaluation
generally works by wrapping the body of the code block in a form which
will collect the result of the code block and print them to STDOUT.
Writing this wrapped body to a temporary file, evaluating this temporary
file, and then collecting the results from STDOUT. I'd suggest
confirming that each of the above steps are working independently.

I hope the above helps. Let me know if you run into any more issues.
