It might be a big job but I'd be considering having the head off for a general clean up. You'll probably find the components themselves are OK underneath all the crud.

It'd be nice to get access to a bore-scope (endoscope) and have a look down the holes, but that might not be easy to come by. I wouldn't be surprised if you can't get some USB plug-in mini camera these days for a few bucks from China.............
Cheers. That's the plan - to try and clean up as much as possible rather than give this guy carte blanche to rebuild!
