Default a question?? valve cover gasket changed.

hey guys... i had oil leak on my valve cover gaskets... i went ahead and changed the left and right side valve cover gaskets.. im gonna change the plugs to ngk also..

but, my question is.. What can i use to clean the sparkplug gallery in the middle.. it has oil all over.. is throttlebody cleaner good? or brake cleaner good? ASAP too.. im in the middle of cleaning it up.. so what should i use to clean up the oil in the middle??? so it wont run down into the plugs..


heres some pics of it..
