He's rightfully concerned. Power washing can force water into places where it normally wouldn't go, and the subsequent rust/corrosion that might occur could take weeks to show up. I wash and rinse my engine compartment too, but I wouldn't take a power washer to it for this reason. Better to use an ounce of WD40 protection than to eventually need to replace connectors or sensors.
