Smoke from heat shield.

[SubaRyu]

Recently my car's power steering hose got damaged/cracked and got it fixed.
But after that smoke keep coming out from right side (passenger) of the engine.

So I guess a lot of spilled power steering fluid went inside of the exhaust heat shield.. at least I can see the smoke is coming from somewhere around O2 censer. I sprayed cleaner, pressure water few times. No change. Smoke still coming out.

What'd be the best way to solve this? Is heat shield easy to remove?
I'll be talking to the shop soon though.

OK smoke is almost gone after driving 2 or 3 hours non-stop.
