There should be a tag on the side of the block that identifies your engine. From the picture it looks like you have the AC 6000 engine with deep dish pistons. If your injectors are on the side of the cylinder head you have an HD344 engine. If the injectors are on the top of the cylinder head you have a 6000 engine. If the engine has a turbo it is the 7000 engine. If you left the petcock open when you drained the block to remove the cylinder head you should not have any water damage. The first thing to do is to drain the oil pan and note how much oil and water is in there. Did the oil pump take on water? Clean the bores before removing the pistons. The rods can be damaged if you use a metal object to push the rod and piston assembly out. If you have the inframe rebuild kit you know that this is a wet sleeve engine. You will need a sleeve puller. I can be contacted at ghausner@mail2george.com
