   Best way is to use some wire wool, then use some autosol metal polish

   A good de-greaser and some elbow grease will get the engine bay looking better.
   
   You can also have them steam cleaned.

   no idea for that, £15-20 ??
   
   but what i use to clean the exhaust is Autosol (can get it from halfrauds) for a couple of quid, find a smooth cloth and polish it the outcome imo is amazinly shiny

    can buy a crapy one from halfords for about £40-£50 quid which will do the job. other wise use liquid degreaser and an old brush, thats what i do...

    white spirits might help
    and a lot of a useful product called elbow grease
