> He also offers a steam hose with valve to steam clean the engine after a run.

Roundhouse also offers a vacuum tap valve that screws into the backhead water-level 
bush. It's not a check valve, but a little globe valve with a handle on it, so you can 
blow 
(if there's pressure in the boiler) or suck (if the boiler is cooling off) depending 
on when 
you open the valve.

It would work for a steam lance, too.
