im gueesing your gonna have to rebuild the entire thing, water could be any where and if your gonna take it apart and spend money on parts, then risk destroying all that **** within 30 sec. of start up

no i think you cannot just regasket it and relube it, you need to check and see where the water came from was it water, antifreeze or what also are the rings rusted any water in the head cracked cylinder walls ect, 500 bucks is not cheap for a bad engine, i would guess the car was submerged in water if it is clean water in the oil, godda do alot to it then
