I use a razor blade in a scraper handle or duckbill pliers (depends on how much reach I need.)
For a final cleaning? Drill motor with a brass brush, Scotch-Brite pad, fine-grit flap wheel, or fine-grit Nylon abrasive brush. Run at high speed, flush with carburettor cleaner when you're done.
Same method on the sump pan proper.
