no problem pressure washing it. the housing is aluminum, and won't rust. yopu can also hit it with a sand blaster, if you like.

NO SAND BLAST
You may glass bead if sealing surfaces are covered (and bolt both 1/2's together and bearing retainer).
anything that takes a seal/gasket do not hit with media.
My advice is take it to a engine machine shop and "hot tank" it. The process does better on iron that aluminum, but still provides a grease free end product.
Media blast after this to clean up the outside.
