Grill cleaner does a pretty badass job at removing grease and carbon. Spray it on, let sit for a couple minutes, brush and wash off with hot water. Leaves your parts nice and shiny.

purple power makes the outside of the engine look like ----.. Now for oil pans, gurdles, and anything that is oil stained, but as far as the outside of the engine.. Simple green a few times should wear it down good.
