Curious if this will harm it at all, had excess yamabond squeeze into the crank area.

As long as it isn't a crazy amount it will be fine. Why don't you just wipe it off?

Well there was quite a lot, I didn’t notice till this morning, I picked out most the excess on the rod through the intake…I have no idea how much is on the other side of the rod

Won’t it just get flung off at wide open?

Just took off the cylinder, not to much left of the rod, got almost all of it scraped off, just reinstalled the cylinder.

I don’t think it’s hard enough to cause actual damage.

It’s not a hard part or aggressive chemical better off to give it a go vs take apart just because of a little excess.  It’ll work its way out without a catastrophic failure most likely.
