A nice trick to clean up aluminum parts is to use a soda blaster. Easy to make or use a small sand blaster. Load it with baking soda and go at it. No worries about getting grit in your engine. You can also do this with the engine installed with no worries since the baking soda will not harm anything. Its kinda messy, so do it outside. Just rinse with water to clean it up. This provides a nice satin finish, no worries about getting to aggressive with the blasting, it will not remove extra material. You can leave the finish as is, polish it, or paint it.

Just seen this, currently doing a similar project with an oddly shaped xr650 engine too I can see you filmed this a while back but just in case it's of any help on future projects, the scotchbrite bits on the dremel are pretty cheap and super effective Run them at higher speeds, aggressive enough to get old paint and oxidisation off, but won't chew into the cases and don't need any hand finishing either Awesome video 😎

Wrestled with the same problem on my custom r80 build. 30 year old engines are hard to get clean without blasting. I've disassembled heads etc to get vapour blasted to take the crank out and everything else needs a lot of specialist tools so I'll just have to make do. What I have found that works well is alubright from raceglaze off eBay for removing corrosion in hard to reach places. Knowing it's not perfect is eating away at me though 😭
