Hijacking is ok! I have learned a bunch about what to and what not to do! Got a compressor from a friend that would push a sodablaster. It doesn't seem to get all the way down through the oxidation, but looks much much nicer!
I like the idea about brass rotary brush between the fins.
Also I have found that with a grey stick polish and a rotozip with a 2" felt disc I can turn any aluminum surface on the bike to a mirror finish. (Portion below and above the gasket looked the same) The trick is getting the polishing head all the places you need for a clean cut off line.
