Hi, I've run out of vinegar and wondered if it would be ok to use H2O2 to clean up an old Tunze powerhead? Will it work as well as vinegar in removing the encrusted stuff on the black plastic parts?

No it doesn't. Peroxide dissolves organincs and such but the acid in vinegar dissolves the calcium from corraline if that's a concern.

I don't think so. If you have an old-school toilet bowl cleaner (names are escaping me) around the house, I think some of them were a pure acid – might be OK diluted. Wear eye protection – especially if there's any scrubbing or splashing involved!!!!!
