Detailing LS1 Motor

My Question is, what is the safest way to clean shell dust and leaves from inside of a LS1 engine compartment? So many electrical components might get too much water. And what kind of degreassers should be used? Any key area I should avoid?:banghead:

Leaves, shop vac and compressed air. :thumbsup:

Pick the leaves out one by one.......
wet rag=dust gone......

I've pressure washed the engine bay of my lt1 and my nissan sentra :dunno:

nothing bad happened.

We spray down the engines with an all purpose cleaner and them power wash it at the detail shop i worked for, we just tried to avoid direct pressure on the alternator and other major electrical looking things, but nothing bad has every happened.
