Water ingestion?

Pictures are worth a 1000 words. I cant see where the rear cylinder was drinking water. 701, b pipe Rickter edge hull, I know if I floated it for awhile the exhaust would get pretty full of water because it would take awhile to wake back up, and get back snappy on the throttle again. Anyhow it wasted the rear big end rod bearing. 200/160 psi, comp, sounded noisy while riding so down the rabbit hole i go.

I can't really see water backflowing through the headpipe on the bpipe but i have seen orings on aftermarket heads and head gaskets leak water into the engine. Also seen open style flame arrestors cause the same thing as well. I have seen water back up like you're saying with the rrp laydown especially with the rrp waterbox.
