Charley, Use paint remover from Lowes (liquid) and Auto Zone (spray can). Get small tooth brush-like wire brushes, sander/wire brush for drill, scraping tools (putty knife, screwdriver, etc). Use lacquer thinner to clean that mess, let dry. Get pampers, yes baby diapers, to lay under, around, above, wherever, the engine to catch and soak up the mess, (they’re useful to catch dripping oil too, don’t ask how I know). Blue tape to mask miscellaneous parts, name plate, hoses, wiring. Enjoy that ENTIRE day, second day prime what needs it then paint until your hearts content. I did that routine in January, worked really well, made it up as I went, secret recipe. Three ol buds came by at separate times and each asked “IS THAT A NEW MOTOR?” Made me feel better, but what did they say to themselves before.....
