If it's water ingestion usually because the water is heavy it's the first cylinders in the pathway from throttle body's , the first in the flow line scavenge all the water .
It is was cylinder 8 so I assume that is the cylinder closet to the bulkhead furthest away from the throttle body's so yes does not make sense .

I can't say I've seen bent rods from head gasket failure , in most cases the blow by channel across the gasket only lets small amounts of water in , not enough to massively flood the cylinder , suppose if i head gasket really bad it could flood it and hydra lock on start up , so yes it's a possibility .

Are these V10 s direct petrol injection ..... possible hydra lock on fuel

" A broken rear gear box mount and engine mount failed "

Could this hold a clue .........could it have had a massive ' gear down ' scenario at that revved the balls off it
