Is this normal or am I missing some shields? I bought this used and it's my first one.

I'm afraid to hose the motor off because of the amount of electrical exposures under the hood. Should I hold off until I can “douche” with grease or will it be ok? I don’t plan on doing any water crossings but I’d like to hose the motor off so when I work on it I don’t have trash under the hood getting in things it shouldn’t.

I hosed the motor off on my Probe GT years ago and it barely made it out of the car wash. Not sure I want to go through that again.
Thats because the DII was built as a mall crawler that can get dirty while the DI was built to get dirty and then go to the mall.
You are fine to hose off your engine.
