Default transmission fluid, how to clean

Last week, a little hose had a small crack in it and transmission fluid was gushin out, so i changed it and it stopped but ever since, after i drive the car for a while, i see that there is some smoke coming out, i checked and is coming from the stain that the fluid left, i guess it still gets hot!
How can i clean this, or any parts of the engine and all of that.

sorry im a noob!

where is the fluid on? you can try to use some kind of grease cleaner like simple green or purple power. you can pick those up at any auto parts store.

the fluid is right under the radiator.

so grease cleaner will do the work?
