If it's not stuck I wouldn't worry too much. Only concern MIGHT be that if it filled a cylinder,then froze and broke,the water would have gone in to the water jacket. I don't know if that scenerio would be more likely with wet sleeves or dry? BUT..by the same token,it would be going both ways and wouldn't compress the water or anti freeze when you roll it over. Trust me on that one.Unless,of course it was just pushing it back in to the water jacket. I bought an Oliver 66 up by Lakeview about 10 years ago and they said the motor was stuck. What happened was,it sat out in the rain and a cylinder filled with water so it wouldn't turn over. They towed it and when it tried to compress the water,it bent the rod so bad that when the piston came back down,the rings expanded under the sleeve.
