David: I think I know exactly what you need - disclaimer - I haven't
used it, but Sonax is a reputable German chemical company.


SONAX ENGINE LACQUER

Sonax Engine Lacquer (Motor Plast) is an aerosol high gloss lacquer
based sealant/protectant for the
unpainted aluminum parts of the drive train. Protects the bare metal
engine, transmission and
suspension components from corrosion. Clean the components thoroughly,
allow to dry and spray on.
Do not use on painted surfaces.
