I have purchased a used 12 gallon stock pot to use for brewing. Is there anything special I should do to the pot to get it brew ready?

I'll PM you my address for proper disposal.
As posted, scrub thoroughly, and I would do a good rolling boil or two just as for safe measure.

Should I use something like a scotch brite pad, sos pad, soft bristle brush?

SOS pad probably most effective, I've used them on SS kettles before. Just make sure you rinse thoroughly, and I would still do a boil in it since you don't know what was in it before.
