As I was putting things back together after a head swap I mistakened a quart of oil for a quart of power steering fluid(it was late and I was tired). I knew what I did right away so I took of the power steering resevoir and drained it. I never started the car so the oil was never circulated through the power steering system. How bad is it if there would be allittle oil in the system? What should I do?

 

I would think the best thing to do is to run it with PS fluid, let it circulate then drain all the fluid again, maybe do that twice to get all the oil out.

I don't think it will hurt anything if you do that. Having a little oil in the system might reduce the hydraulic effect of the system in the interim.
