Marvel is the best penetrating/lube oil I have ever seen

I probably used the wrong choice of words. Don't use that type of oil for flushing. It is too thin and if any is left trapped in the engine, it only helps to reduce the lubricating benifits of the proper oil. I do understand what you are trying to do, that is to flush through any water and crap in the engine. But water should drain out just fine anyway. And if you do manage to remove the pan, that sort of clean will be far better than any flush can give it.
Sorry I don't know what the Amsoil Diesel one is yet. I have some on order, but have only used the petrol engine version. That comes in a clear container.
Any full synthetic will be fine. But Amsoil have their own filters and they are very very good. Highly recomended. Large filter capacity and very fine filtration of only 2micron.
DO NOT USE additives.
