Internal flappers may be burnt out. Use a flashlight and look into pipes.

Checked the oil and it seems to now have a bit of water in it. Will an oil change solve the problem? I had a machanic tell me to just run it and let the water evaporate out because it does not seem to be much at all due to the dipstick showing full but not over full. Any thoughts?
You probably have a bad exhaust manifold or exhaust riser leaking water into the engine or if lucky just a bad gasket between them. It will destroy the engine if you don't get it fixed |

You should probably start by pulling the exhaust manifolds and having them checked. |
Will do!!
|
Also you say you started the engine and it ran...did you run it on the hose? If not, you probably burned up the water pump impeller. Anytime you run a boat on land, you have to run water through the sea pump or it will burn up.

I had the hose and muffs on it

How much water was in the pan? Water if not mixed with the oil (whitish) will be a puddle in the sump and will be first to be pumped through the engine.
