It'll save you money too. Properly cared for plastic and hoses are a hell of a lot less likely to break.

Air. Every car wash I just go over the engine bay with a compressor air gun and a soft bristled brush to get the dirt loose. To make the plastics pretty, I've used VRT or Adam's In & Out Spray. Armor All gets really greasy and will attract dirt to the surface you put it on. After a few hundred miles, you'll see the dirt start to cake on some surfaces.

It only takes a very light misting of that stuff to make the engine look new. If you have to wipe it down, you've used too much.

+1 on routine maintenance being the key. If you stay up on it every other wash or so, then there should be no need for heavy cleaning or conditioning.
A little Super VRT on the hoses and plastics that are easily accessible, and some In & Out spray for the hard to reach spots, and you'll be good to go!
