You should NEVER add water to the engine bay. A damp cloth would be ok, That's usually what I use to scrub then go over it with some magiuers wipes. Pouring a bucket of water over the engine could leave water in places it shouldnt be. Let alone a pressure washer, you could force water deeper into bad places. I would steer clear of doing that.
