ok while i am fixing my car, we decided to clean the block, and during this there may have been a bit of water that actually entered the block, i sprayed a lil bit of penetrating oil in there, and im letting it air dry right now, is there any other things i should do? i am worried that it may screw up the car. just need to know what i need to do.

And how do you figure you got water in the block? Did you spary water in directly into the carb/throttle body?

no there just appeared to be little water spots on the crank, i know it wasnt much but i am worried about it, we had the oil pan on while spraying, and also we had the spark plugs in, all holes sealed with duct tape, but there were some little water spots sitting on top of the oil, is it anything to worry about if it didnt get drenched?

I say crank it up and don't think twice about it. If you are really nervous you could change the oil as a precaution.

At least you don't have this much water in the block like I do
