That small amount that is going to get into the system, if the tractors isn't contaminated, is not going to hurt a thing. If you are worried about it, drain the cylinders before connecting them back to the combine.

You could still use your tractor, just let the oil bleed out when you get the other engine in. Only lose a little oil, it wont mix unless you work the hyds. Fred

Tractors known for crank problems only because of thrust from clutch.Combines were non issue.

You mean it started and gave you thirty seconds with a broken crank? She must have been a real trooper.
