Default How to get rid of oil ??

MY rocker cover leaked a few months back and due to this i have a stretch of oil down to the right of my engine. Its also dangerously close to my timing belt. What is the best way to go about getting rid of this ? Looks like it might be a bit of a difficult job with good old elbow grease ?
Bit hesitant to use power washer as ive heard osme horror stories.

Advice please.

Im up near aberdeen if anyone knows anywhere decent i can put it in to ?

Engine de-greaser and then lightly wash it off.
