Don't really know but I've got another 1.4 8v going in mine getting it all solvent dipped then shot blasted that shud look good.....

Totally irrelevant to you but there you go !!!

try getting sum strong cloth like emery cloth on the block and giving it sum good old elbow grease ???

Can't see any way of getting it really clean (i.e the block aswell as the head) with out it being out of the bay?
