Dude just get some purple power and a wire brush. Clean up the block/tranny really good get all that grease off. you don't want that under the paint it doesn't look good. then go to the parts store and buy a can of high heat paint, color should be aluminum. but get a few different cans and see witch one looks the best. You should end up looking like the one in the second pic
i use driveway cleaner on some of the motors ive painted and it worked better than that purple stuff just dont let it sit for too long or it will stain the block then youll have to scrub the **** out of it
