Long as he didnt hook another tractor or something on it and try and pull it he might be alright. I am a diesel mechanic and I have seen bent rods and bent valves but it was when timing gears broke,or somebody pulled a truck with water on top of the pistons. I would be tempted to try and turn it backwards slowly and see if it pushed out the water.If it got tight you would stop,maybe go the other way then. Its not as hard as you might think to bend a rod,but its only going to be 1 or 2 cylinders at the most with water on it unless the valves are burned out.Anyway bending 1 rod wont keep it from running,it will make it miss real bad.Bending 2 rods it might not run if its a 4 cylinder but I think thats a 6 cylinder so it would probly run,not real good. Just my opinion,might not be right.As for it not running,its not going to run good at first because you cant get all of the water out I dont think anyway.You get enough out it will turn over,but some is still going to be in there.
