You might also look into painting the lifter valley, tops of the heads (where the rocker arms go), and behind the timing cover.
Use epoxy paint, and only epoxy paint, to paint the insides. The engine oil will run down out of these areas more easily, and there will be less engine sluge build up.
Make sure it is epoxy paint only. Enamel will flake off and become part of the sludge.
You want to clean the areas you're going to paint with lacquer thinner.
Don't use primer, just shoot on a thin coat, let it get sticky, then spray on the full wet coat.
You can use a rag dipped in lacquer to clean out the lifter bores after you finish painting.
