Home to remove monumental grime?

Is it small enough to fit in an ultrasonic cleaner? And how about a better
degreaser, like Purple Magic from AIM chemical? (This stuff might be too
harsh. It will damage soft rubber long term, and will strip the anodizing
finish from certain types of aluminum, such as that used on the flame
arrestors of my engines. I assume it's anodization, because it's the gold
color, and it's sure not paint).
