Hydrolocking?

Can hydrolocking cause you to throw a rod and blow a hole the size of a golf ball in the block? I recently blew my motor and took it to Honda and they said they found water in my throttle body and b/c I have an AEM cai they said that caused it...Now insurance will cover it b/c it is considered an accident w00t! for insurance

Well the only problem with hydrolocking was that it wasn't raining and hasn't rained in the pass week, so we are calling on it and getting our lawyer to call over and talk to them...
