Yes, please do. Cavitation erosion, cracked block, or cracked head

According to the guys on site, the most likely suspect at this point is the
aftercooler. As I said, I'm a bit stumped about how all that water would have
traveled *up* several inches and in sufficient quantity.........but that's why
I'm not a mechanic and those who have the knowledge are.

I'd guess (and it's only that), that the turbo itself probably creates
enough air pressure and flow to move a fair volume of water. It must
have stopped the engine VERY abruptly however if the water only got to
one cylinder that way.

What make and model engine is it?
