Also what type of solvent should I dose the rockers--(edit Push rods I mean) in?

Yes, that is EGR valve. Brake cleaner is popular because it dries residue free . Carb cleaner is second because it isn't residue free.

Cover the intakes.
It will ruin your day if something should fall in there.

and

do torque the screws or you will find the gaskets leaking once again.
