I had my block cleaned at a machine shop and because I was not able 
to paint it right away there is some light rust on the outside.

If I use soda to blast it away should I be concerned if some of the 
soda gets into the oil galleries?

I can clean the galleries with solvent but I am curious to know if 
the soda might harm the bearings once everything is back together.

Tank you,
