Lots of degreaser. Cover anything hat you could harm with a lot of water/degreaser and have at it. Take a small brush or toothbrush to get the crevices you want cleaned out. Use a high pressured hose clean it up. It'll take a while. If you want the stuff dressed afterwards, use some of the Migliore Trim Protectant, Poorboy's Trim Restore, or even Stoners Trim in the spray can.

Get after it with a washcloth and some hot soapy.

Yes, it's a bitch. Took me a couple hours to do mine, then again I kept falling off the wet ladder (fuck being short)

Mine had about 1/2" of grime on the bottom end of the engine... took me about 4 hours to get mine looking like what I wanted. I had to get some work done the next day and when I went to pick up my truck the guys were asking me why my engine was so clean with 120k miles

After cleaning I'd recommend dressing with Migliore Brilliant Trim Dressing for a nice matte finish:
