Sounds really f*cking nasty but stick it in the dish washer if you have one.. it WILL Bring it up lovely and is reasonably easy on the engine's more sensitive parts..
Mrs BAsh might not be so easy on your sensitive parts if she finds out mind

Oven cleaner and degreaser from local car parts (or work stores!) works a treat with some pressure action too!

If there is an engine machinist nearby they will probably dip it in their tank for a couple of quid, that will do the best job.
They might charge as little as a couple of cans of Mr Muscle?
