i was repair fuel injection o-ring kits. somehow i was start but there stuck like a lock becuz of flood...so, waiting around 10 mins later...i start again and there got a noise lately.

 

Hydro-lock is the nail in the coffin. :-\ This probably means rod bearing damage. Piston and/or wrist pin damage is also possible.

 

Pulling the fuel injector wires one at a time while the engine is running may make a change in the noise. But it looks like you get to pull the engine out and replace the block at the very least.

 

You can check the valve lash before tearing the engine apart in case there is some sort of coincidental damage like maybe a spring has broken or if a guide has slipped and is holding a valve open.
