Water In the Oil Pan!!

I have a 47 WC that is stuck. I pulled the oil drain plug and to my horror about 2 quarts of water poured out followed by oil. I have yet to pull the pan off and check it out. I am considering the purchase of this tractor from an elderly lady. The tractor ran 4 years ago and her late husband used it to clear land. I have taken the plugs out and looked into the plug openings and only one cylinder has some rust. The other three look fine. What would a good offer be for me to make this lady. I want to be fair yet take into account the possible engine damage. She has allowed me to tear into the tractor to get a good look at it.
As I said before, i haven't gotten the chance to get the head or oil pan off but I fear the worst. I would still buy the tractor if the price was right.
ANY ADVICE????? ?? Thanks
TAZ

There is one other possibility, condensation. Better check the tranny for water.

Taz, Water in the oil pan is not good, however, it probably comes from one of about 3 places. #1 o-rings on the sleeves (remove sleeves and replace o-rings) #2 cracked block- usually between the sleeves on top or bottom or both (replace the block). #3 water down the exhaust into probably the rusty cylinder past the rings and into the pan (basic clean up, maybe replace rusted rings, maybe grind valves if they leak). If this was clear water and the engine has anti-freeze in, it probably came down the exhaust. Duey

I have a B and any time i leave it outside in the rain water runs throgh the manifold between the pipe an the manifold and it gets water inthe oil and it gets stuck,thebest remedy is to change oil with some cheap oil and pour some diesel fuel and burned oil down the exhaust and let it set for a few weeks then take the spark plugs out and try to pull the tractor off it may take awhileand alot of pushin the clutch in and out but it finall gets free,if that don't work try some marvel mystery oil.

I agree with the three entrances, water thru the exhaust stack is very, very common on these tractors. You should pour kroil (or WD40 etc) in the spark plug holes and let it set for a week. Then try rocking the tractor. This is not uncommon problem and not an uncommon fix. Might be that simple. Worth a try.

The Water was clear and with only one rusty cylinder, I feel confident with what you have told me that it came throught the exhaust pipe. Thanks for your help!!!

I don't want to rain on your parade, but consider. If water got into a cylinder from the exhaust stack then it could havefrozen there too. If that happened it could have cracked a liner. Unless you are lucky and live where it doesn't freeze.
