I don't think using harsh chemicals is the answer. I would consider it, at best, a temporary band-aid that may do more damage than good. But you may not have much choice at this point. YMMV
I'd do an inspection of the block (you may be able to use one of the cheap borescopes/endoscopes that you can find online nowadays) for corrosion before going too far.
