Crank

[1989 champion]

I had a major issue this last weekend I had a water line break filling my housing full of water tell it filled the bottom cylinder and bending a rod. Does anyone have a crank for a 1996 Mariner magnum 175 HP I am concerned it compromised it because of the force it must of took to bend a rod. Or am I ok cylinder wall is good. I will probably replace all the rod bearings because of the water causing rust over night. Any thought or opinions would be great.
