I might have killed the Brozz?? HELP NEEDED

Took the bike out on some local trails last night, was heading back to the road and I went through a large "puddle" that turned out to be a pond.
Bike was running when it got submerged , and died. Water was all the way up to the seat. Covered the entire engine, covered the carb, covered the air filter.
Got towed out by a quad, towed me about a 1/2 mile.
It was dark and in the woods, at least a couple times I accidentally bumped the shifter so the bike was being dragged with the rear tire locked up and the engine hydrolocked.
Not good.
When I got home, I took a shower and then headed out to the garage.
I drained the oil, nothing but water came out at first, then milky gross oil. I pulled the dipstick, pulled the spark plug, pulled the drain plug, pulled the oil screen plug.
Pulled the carb, took it apart. Cleaned the air filter. Drained the gas tank.
I sprayed Water Displacement 40 in the sparkplug hole, down the dipstick, and in the intake. Like a whole can.
I was planning on changing the oil like 4 times tonight and cleaning everything.
What are the chances I've killed the bike?
Is there anything else I should do that I'm missing?
