water in my intake

I blew a coolant seal so I started pulling stuff off my engine topull it out and rebuild it. when I took the intake off there was water in all through it. I know that when you blow a coolant seal you will get water in the exhaust but Im not sure about the intake so is this normal? thanks

Hopefully someone more knowledgable will anwser, but I think there's a seal somewhere in the intake manifold that can fail and produce similar symptoms to a blown coolant seal, so maybe you're lucky. I'm not sure though, I just vaguely remember reading something about that.
