Default Cleaning Accord engine compartment (places to avoid getting water?)

I plan on cleaning the engine compartment of my 97 accord with 137,000
miles. I know to cover the alternator and obvious electrical
connectors. I also hear advice to cover the distributor, but from my
what I recall Honda 2.2 vtec engines are distributorless. Are there any
other parts of the engine compartment that I should be extra carefull
to keep water away from?
I plan to use Simple green, a low-pressure mist, a cold engine when
cleaning and to final rinse with distilled water.
Many have talked about what possibly can go wrong.
I would like to especially hear from others where something DID go
wrong when they cleaned under the hood and what they would have done
differently. Thanks
