Wow that's some boil over, brake fluid is corrosive so keep an eye on the conditions of parts that were exposed to it as to limit further corrosion. The smell will eventually go away as any residual fluid brakes down with time.

When you change your fluid use one of the below or better and get a simple fluid tester for % water content.

Motul 5.1
Dry boiling point 269 °C / 516 °F
Wet boiling point 187 °C / 369 °F

Motul RBF 600
Dry boiling point 312 °C / 594 °F
Wet boiling point 204 °C / 399 °F

Castrol SRF
Dry boiling point 310deg C
Wet boiling point 270deg C
