A very long time ago when I worked at the auto wreckers we used to use gas to clean stuff. It pretty much evaporates. Though I don't know what residue is left behind. If it wouldn't damage the part you could give it a bleach dip then a vinegar dip. See if it still smells after that.

Acetone will clean off the gas, it also is somewhat water soluble, so clean the heck out of it then srub it with water and it should be good after that.
