Exterior Engine Care

I’m struggling to find any information on how to clean the exterior of our jet engine that sits in the water for the season.

Unfortunately we weren’t able to get a rack and launch forcing us to have a year round slip for our 2012 SeaDoo Challenger. I pull the boat out about once a month and clean the algae off our bottom, but I can’t find a single way to clean up our jet and grate. They’re starting to lose their black color.

Any help is greatly appreciated. We want to upgrade at the end of this season to a bigger boat and we only have 72 hrs on the boat. Would hate for the boat to be in such good condition and have the engine look like crap when we go to put it up for sale.
