You really don't have to be brave, it's really not a big deal at all. It's how detailers all over America clean really dirty engine bays.

Normally I just use my hose at home and if a persons engine bay is only mildly dirty that would be fine. However, in extreme situations pressure washing is the way to go. ONR is decent on cars but I don't know any other detailers that use it on engine bays. Defiantly wouldn't use ONR on a heavily soiled up engine, it's just not strong enough or made to effectively cut through oil or things of that nature. Again, if the engine was mildly dusty then I can maybe see using it but it's really not made for that kind of application but if it works go for it.
