As long as you don't have pools of water you;ll be O.K maybe take a hair dryer to it and evaporate the water out!

Either pop the injectors or glowplugs out and crank it over, teaspoon ot 2 stroke oil in each inlet and repeat.

X2 on that, I took injectors out on one I had to re build for a mate who did similar to you....you'll be amazed how much water may come out DONT be tempted to try it without checking, as it will cause major damage even if only a small amount.
