Best way to clean underside of engine for leaks

Mechanics of MBworld, what do you recommend is the best way to clean oil and other leaks in and under the cars engine?

Moving on to the next project with son's car. Trying to figure out a couple of leaks and need to clean the engine and under body by do not want to damage any hoses or electrical. I have heard Spray Nine is safe and effect or to use brake cleaner though I would be worried about damaging hoses with that. What are your recommendations on how to best clean an engine? What do shops use?

Thank you!
