Interesting video, thanks. Very cool to see how everything gets exposed, all the way down to the bare block.
Oh, the video title is a little misleading; death by water ingestion is not specific to just the PS 6.7. Any engine can be destroyed the same way.
I think his analysis of how it happened is likely correct. Someone drove into water deep enough to suck enough water into engine to kill it. That one piston rod was gnarly...

Unless its an early HO, that happened to a few from the turbo leaking coolant.

Did anyone pay attention to the gear sprocket on the crank?
It was TIG welded. that engine has been worked on previously. Too bad that cylinder got cracked, otherwise perfectly rebuildable. I don't know if those can be sleeved, of they can, that engine wasn't in bad shape, fully rebuildable.

He definitely caused a fair amount of damage waiting to tear it down. Did I miss glow plug removal? Once he pulled the heads he pointed out the holes for them, but I don’t recall their removal.

I think a saw a little available space for one more 8mm to hold down the water pump.
