Seeing that is just pipe, you can use a wire wheel. I'm guessing that you're not taking it apart all the way so you wont have any wrench marks so I just would use full strength Simple Green and real hot water.  Let it soak in a small bucket. and use Scotch Brite red or grey to clean it.  Then I polish with flitz.  Scotchbrite will scratch crome or flat shiny surfaces, but I don't belive it will scratch pipe..

As Larry stated, Simple Green will do a nice job!
