Would you remove the Rocker cover on your car just because it was dirty
Of course not.
If there is NO Need to remove the corrector plate to clean it, Don't.
Three reasons not too
(1) You could drop it, then you have a useless C14 as you cannot replace it.
(2) Even doing what you said there is always the chance that it will need collamating.
3 it is much simpler to just clean it in place and not give yourself extra work.
It is a five minute job to clean it in place.

PS Water doesn't normally flow up hill so if you point the scope facing down when cleaning it the water won't seep through"Simple."
