I would probably go out and buy a can of engine brite (or something comparable) - they're sold at any auto store. Then wait until your engine's cool, spray it on real thick, wait a few minutes, scrub anything thats real dirty, maybe spray some more on, and then just rinse it off.

Put a plastic bag or something over your distributor and alternator just to be safe. And try not to soak them.

no the stickers will be fine unless you scrub them too hard or something like that
