Does anyone have any suggestions about keeping the bottom of the airplane
clean from exhaust?

Randy -
I have a few minutes, so thought I'd write....
I have about 100 hours on my 320. Although a slight amount of oil from the
crankcase breather is deposited on the bottom of the fuselage, I've never
noticed any exhaust deposits.
I installed the exhaust system sold by Lancair. The foot-long extensions arc
downward at about a 30 degree angle to the fuselage and the exit point is
about 6 to 8 inches below the bottom of the fuselage. They are both fully
within the area behind the lower cowl scoop.
  I use DuPont "Prep-Sol" to clean the oil from the bottom after flight.
Although other solvents could be used, it's one that is designed for use on
paint.
