Diesel Geyser

This morning's brain fart was forgetting to tighten the bleed screw on the CDI fuel filter (I had loosened it to relieve pressure when reclamping a fuel hose). So I turned the key and witnessed the diesel equivalent of Old Faithful!

So fuel got all over the engine compartment. Other than wiping things down thoroughly, is there anything of particular importance I need to clean off?
