Heat, gas, and earll are enemies of paint and guess what an engine is made of.
Good prep and good quality paint are the best insurance. A car wash spray off and rattle cans do not a good paint job make. You need a good degreasing, a liquid metal prep, and a high quality two part paint for it to last. Even still the paint will burn off the hotter areas.
