Hydro-locking an engine resulting in a bent valve? New one to me. Generally any clicking (clanking) is the BENT ROD hitting the lower edges of the cylinder wall.

When you get the rig back on DRY, stable manageable ground....fire it up and pull the plug wire off the bad cylinder. My $$ would be on lower end though...just the nature of the beast.

Take some pics of the 30K lb winch operation though!
