I used caustic soda from a chemist shop to clean out an exhaust once but be carefull because it will burn your skin. Block one end up,hang it up somewhere and fill it up and leave for a few hours.
Not sure about oven cleaner it may have caustic in it should do the same job though.

Hey all,
I cleaned out my exhaust today (muffler) with "Easy off" oven cleaner . I sprayed it in both ends swished it around and let it sit for awhile. I hung it to drain then rinshed and re hung to drain and dry . It seemed to work really well
