If you can do it outside in a safe, completely safe area..gasoline or diesel works fine. Id stick a bit of chain down into the case, leaving one end firmly tied to the outside..and then after filling with gasoline..fuel...and sitting for a couple hours...swirl the case around, turning it this way and that, letting that bit of chain (dog chain, small chain..but bigger than florescent lamp chain..one needs a bit of weight) move this way and that..and break up the clumps that formed in the corners and whatnot. After putting the engine back together and running it for a bit, do an oil change and you will see all manner of nasty stuff come out the drain. Then fill it with your Good oil and have a very fun and safe time!!
