It's really not good to get water inside of a transmission (or on a clutch assembly). In what position did you leave it?

Cover up the input shaft area, output shaft and shifter box. It should be fine after that.

I couldn't leave anything like that out around here (would get jacked), but in the case I ever left a tranny out to the elements, it would be wrapped in plastic wrap and then a tarp.
