Default Throttle body clean up of OIL!

I have searched but all I can find are conventional ways of cleaning the T/B

My old B16A2 rings went big time and I had the breather linked up to the inlet, and when I just looked inside to see how much varnish etc were in there i was horrified to see thick black shiny oil inside the T/B and inlet manifold.
Its really thick and is not smooth so god knows what it is doing to the air flow!

What I need to know is do regular T/B cleaners clear the oil? Or anyone know the best way to clear it? I really don't want to take the manifold off, it looks like a pain of a job!

Thanks in advance!

I am not a Noob! PC went haywire and I've had to re register!!!!!!!!!!!!!
