[SML] Help! big 3D printer mess

My SO is going to save the world.  printing face shields.  35 came out 
fine, so like any good scientist she decided to change all the 
parameters.  Something clogged the print head ( I guess) but the feeder 
kept pushing filament in, and it finally found an exit.  The result is 
this ugly mess.  Pretty sure heat will ruin the surrounding parts, not 
sure if we can dunk the whole thing in a tub of acetone or some other 
solvent.  Mechanical removal looks to be a bear.  anybody have any 
experience based advice?
