Depends, if the drain plug is open, probably not, as enough water to crack it would not be able to build up in the block. It would take quite a while for enough to get in the radiator cap hole to fill it enough to damage it. Grandpa's F-20 froze up one winter because the drain plugged with rust when dad pulled the cap off, and he didn't stay arouond to watch it drain. It cracked the block, but on the outside so it has been repaired. They have wet sleeves, so if it is stuck they should be pulled anyway, so it will not be hard to check it out.
