Cleaning pre-war engine ?

What is a good but fairly quick way to clean just normal grime off a pre-war 8? It's not terrible but could stand a nice clean up to look more presentable. I'm referring to just the engine.

I go to the Motor Cycle shop and get "Bike Brite" it is great. Spray it on a Cold motor. Let is sit for about 2-3 minutes. Hose it off with warm water. Just cover the gen and volt reg. It is biodegradable, wont hurt paint or wires. No brushing or scribing at all. I have use it many times on all my equip. Farm tractor Harley, cars and my 2012 truck. When you are done wipe the water from the plug areas and let the motor dry. Use an air hose to blow the water off, and in about an hour fire her up.
