Whats good for putting in the engine bay then washing off to remove old and claggy oily bits and generally other stubborn bits of muck?

GUNK is good for getting oil off metal parts, i just cleaned the inside of my valve cover... you can get it from halfords, paint on from a tin, or GUNK Ultra spray (£5.49).

i prefer autoglym machine and engine degreaser.

very nearly as good as gunk at removing crap, but doesnt smell so bad, seems to rinse off easier and int as nasty for your paintwork.
cheers,
