Default Power steering fluid getting onto the alternator

While I was re routing some wires under the hood one of my power steering hoses got pulled off by accident and got fluid on the alternator, should I be worried about this doing damage ? I havent tried starting the car back up gonna let it sit over night let all the fluid drip off.

spray on some engine cleaner (or other grease/oil breaker) first and hose it off. or it could spray on other stuff on start up.
95% sure you will be fine to start it and it will run good now though.
