Question How to clean the engine case?

I'm rebuilding my 3.0 and it's all torn down - after spending hours with a brush and solvent, I took the case halves down to my local machine shop to be 'hot tanked'.
I saw the halves yesterday, and while most of the grit,grime and oil, etc is gone....the case halves do not look great.
I've seen a number of pics on this board, of cases that look like they've been bead blasted (but Wayne said not to do that, because of the oil galleries, so I won't!)..... so, what methods you you pelican heads use to get the case "spotless"....?????

Thanks for your input!
