Just flush it out very very good, you should know about when to stop, basically the point is you want to get the scrap out of down there so that you don't hurt anything when it goes back together, its not something i would skimp on but you don't have to do it for ever either. Basically its just like washing out anything. Just keep doing it untill you feel satisfied that there is nothing else down there that shouldn't be there. I would also keep turning the crank over after to make sure everything feels right if you think there is something wrong just split the case better safe than sorry when it comes to something like this, also when your all done let it dry out good before reassembling the top end.
Is there a drain on the bottom or just pour the fuel down in where the connecting rod comes out the top?
while your at it you may want to change the flywheel side crank seal, if you pull it out you can flush some kerosene through there too, if any thing feels rough your going to need to split the cases and clean/inspect/ replace stuff

Don't forget to follow proper break in procedures after reassembling the top end. There should be a thread on here that tells you how to break in your motor. Good luck gettin her goin.
