no starter motor after changing fuel pipes

  1. Gave the old girl a service today and changed all the fuel pipe.I ran it after the service and that was fine ,no problem's, while pulling the fuel pipe off the tank starter got a wetting of petrol across the terminals.
    reconnected the battery and I get ignition lights and the fuel pump runs ( 12 volt ) but no starter motor, does it need to dry properly or could it be something else ?
