The problem with dismantling is you basically have to chisel the lid off of it with potential for damage (I have done it and it's a chore) and then glue it back on.
You may be best to just dump a couple of litres of degreaser in it, slosh it around and leave it to evaporate for a few days. (It may be easier if you have an air compressor to blow it out)
On the other hand it will be oiled up after a couple of days anyway so probably futile!
