My 60 had a similar problem, water in oil while sitting. Did not start it, pulled engine, found bad head gasket, cleaned carbon off top of pistons/valves, cleaned the pan and anything else I could without disassembling any rotating parts, put in all new gaskets and it has been running strong again, no leaks, for another 20 years so far.
