You can use DataModelObjectCategory to get category of objects and filter them. Here is an example for getting named selection with name 'Displacement'

disp_ns =[ns for ns in ExtAPI.DataModel.GetObjectsByType(DataModelObjectCategory.NamedSelection) if ns.Name=="Displacement"]

You may not be able to delete object 1, which is a geometry.

Thank you very much for solving my problem. After searching on my own, I found that the script code for deleting part is

    geopartdel=ExtAPI.DataModel.GeoData.Assemblies[0].AllParts
    Model.DeleteParts(geopartdel)

I hope it can help people who are also troubled by this problem. Please note that this script will delete all parts.

Adding to Rajesh's answer, you can get the object type by selecting a branch in the tree and running:
Tree.FirstActiveObject.GetType()
