There's no shortage of cheap borescopes on Amazon - several recommended here, and by notable A&Ps.
On the recommendations of a few I bought a Vividia VA400. Unfortunately, I've had nothing but problems with it, and even if it did work the camera resolution was marginal at best. After only a couple uses the articulation broke, and then in less than a dozen uses the camera has become obscured by something inside the lens. I've been disappointed with it.
I needed a HD scope to inspect the thru-bolt bore on my case so I did some more research and found a good one on amazon. It records in 1080p and the screen is 720p, so it's a vast improvement over the Vividia. It does not articulate, but it's semi-rigid, and can fold back 180 degrees. It's also smaller so it can fold back 180 and still snake through a spark plug hole. Highly recommend!

I'll post some sample video when the UTube finishes encoding it
