I might be crazy, but if it were me, and I had fork fluid leaking onto the front brake pads, I'd change the pads out ASAP.
In my experience, brake cleaner will not totally clean oil-soaked brake pads.
If you REALLY need the brakes some day, they may not be there for you unless you put in new pads.
I'm just sayin'.
Ya'll be careful out there!
