From the inside out with hot water. A proper chemical will get it cleaner though. And make sure it's bone dry before installing.

I'd start with an airline, or at least a vacuum cleaner?

To not clean it chemically (I would think) is to not clean it properly, not sure why you wouldn't want to do it properly.

What does the manufacturer recommend?

Is it a "paper" element just disguised as a "K & N" type filter or a proper copy type (if you see what I mean) as that will make a difference to what you can do with it.

I’ll have to have a close looo. I don’t think it’s paper I think it’s semi-decent
