You would also need to know what size the reamer needs to be.
I don't see why Stainless Steel Rifle or Shot Gun Bore Brushes would not work.
On My own Engine after the Reaming is done you are supposed to tie or hold the Fuel Injection Pump Throttle Lever in the Shutoff Position and crank the Engine and it blows out any loose Carbon particles the fell into the Precombustion Chamber.
If you hold the Lever in the Shutoff Position and have someone else crank the Engine be sure to protect your Eyes; even if the minimun you do is to close your Eyes.
You would also need a section of Cleaning Rod to mount the Brush on.
