Nothing caustic. For heavy buildup, use a large stiff nylon bristled parts brush dip it in a container of biodiesel, apply sparingly with a container positioned below to catch drips and plenty of rags.
Afterwards, at the carwash, use ZEP Heavy Duty Citrus Degreaser (from Home Depot) applied from a portable pump up garden sprayer (you'll get tired using a standard trigger spray bottle).
Hint...bring your ramps to the carwash if you have a set, also remove the air cleaner, cover the turbo inlet with a glove and a spray can cap and cover the crankcase oil recovery tube with a glove as well.
Rinse with the carwash pressure wand.
(Don't use the carwash engine cleaner...who knows what is in it)
Edit: Didn't see engine is already out of the car...kind of hard to transport a pulled engine to the carwash
