A good running engine can be freshened up by doing simple things like cahnging all the gaskets, timing chain etc. I would simply degrease and use a wire wheel as David suggested folloowed by paint of your choice.
A few hours of hard labour with a scraper, some degreaser and some scouring pads will make it look like a million bucks.
Remember though, that a good looking engine doesn't get you home....
Mechanicals are the key to a good running motor.
