Do steam cleaners really do that good of a job? I've heard about people using them under the hood.

Would it be unsafe to take it trough an automated carwash? I know I'm risking the paint job if I do that. But I have a couple of spots that I'm going to get repainted anyway.

Those things are accidents waiting to happen...so my answer is no.

Talking Solution to get the cosmoline and grease off:

Product called Simple Green, available at home Depot and various places, Easy Off for the really stuck-on stuff works well. If your worried about removing Cosmoline protection, coat exposed dry areas with Amzoil MP, available online.
