Clay bar, maybe, for the paint cleaning?

Look at the stickers under the hood, there should be mention of 7A-FE or 4A-FE, also see if you can see the sticker on the timing belt cover, that'll tell you as well. If there are no stickers visible, see if you can see the oil pan. The 7A-FE has a very uneven pan, with a big 'hump' downward on the side opposite the transmission where it can clear the crossmember. The 4A-FE has an even pan across, because the deck height is shorter and it doesn't need to get clearance from the crossmember. Hope this helps.
