Re: cleaning head surface
I razor'd mine off after stuffing a few clean towels in the ports, didn't even get it all off and smooth, but the intake is now sealed. New gasket seems to have taken care of it.
You could carefully use a flathead screwdriver for bigger chunks.

Re: cleaning head surface
I think when i installed the intake mani gasket, the old one that was stuck on may be causing my fluctuating idle problem

scotch-brite pads and a die grinder works pretty good. They don't take off any metal if you're reasonably careful - the scotch-brite will disintegrate first.
