Need Help: Throwing a PO171

I recently cleaned and re-oiled my Airforce One filter. Yesterday my PCM threw a PO171 error. I'm thinking I may have put too much oil on my filter and the MAF has oil all over it (tech at dealer warned me about this, and said it would throw a lean code if MAF got oil on it)

What type of solvent should I use to clean the oil off of the MAF?? Any ideas?

And before you say anything, its not just the Airforce One CEL problem...I have an Xcal2 and have never had a CEL since I installed it in August....

Here is an article I found on a quick how to. Our MAF is different than the 03-earlier F-150's. The picture below will show where the wire sensor is to spray.
