turning it over with water in a cylinder?

Would think it'd more likely bend a rod, but imagine it could break a crank too.

Then it could leave little evidence behind other than the break itself.

Perosnally I'd search for a replacement engine first as it may end up being cheaper overall - depending on what your end goal is.

Otherwise I'd strip the block down and have it magnafluxed for stress cracks.

O broken crank can be a pretty serious jolt to the system.

Check your vavle stems and pushrods for straightness too.

If it all checks out, I wouldn't trust any of the major components, I'd bite the bullet and buy a full rebuild kit - new rods and pistons - and obviously find a new crank.
