There is another way without dropping the pan, i have have used it with some success.
First you need..
1 gallon of kerosene and a 1 gallon can of Gunk cc3k.
A couple of cheap stiff bristle parts cleaning brushes, HF has them cheap.

First drain the oil, replace the drain plug and using a thin funnel pour 1 qt of the kerosene in the oil pan down one of the return holes in the head.
Scratch out as much of the junk ans you can from both heads then take a quart of the carb and parts cleaner in a can and brush the entire head down, do not scrub the valve springs as you want to keep contact of the chemical and seals to a minimum.
Let it sit a couple of hours then scrub the heads with the parts brush, they wll come spotlessly clean.
Wash them down with a little kerosene and a brush and let it go into the pan.
Drain the pain again, replace the plug and pour the remaining 3 qts of the parts cleaner through the funnel into the pan.
This will not cause any issues whatsoever, it is never in contact with any seals or gaskets.
Leave it at least overnight a day or two is better, this will dissolve all the crud and whatever maybe on the pickup screen. Do not crank the engine during any part of this process.
Drain the pan again, replace the plug and fill it with the rest of the kerosene to wash the residual parts cleaner out.
Assemble the valve covers and fill with the cheapest dino you can find, leave the filter on that it has.
Run the engine 15-20 min at idle and change the oil and filter to whatever you intend to run in it.
There is no verification of how clean the pan is but i will tell you it gets them pretty clean. Do short OCI with PYB and a bottle of Rislone concentrate.
