Let's try that again France:
^this is from the full service manual by the way. No where does it say that it will change the fuel map or affect anything under normal driving conditions for that matter. It merely pulls timing when it detects knock when the car is NOT in normal driving conditions(aka light/no load), which is what I stated earlier.
And the orings can leak a little or a lot. There are confirmed cases in which an oring is slightly damaged and leaking enough to cause a rich condition. Hydrolock is more common in cases where the intake pipe sucks up a bunch of water when the car drives through a puddle. I'd say that's unlikey here considering that would be some extreme fuel leakage.
