Chris,

Feel much with you on this.
My best guess:
Engine - if the water - mud dip not reach the dipstick entry point, there
should not be worry. Renewal of the oil is advisable though.
Gearbox: same.
Clutch: I expect this might possibly be needed to be replaced. Slave
cylinder cleaned!
Differential gear: check if mud has come in.
Uni joints main drive: clean and possibly apply new neadles etc.
Electrics: replace all bullet connector receptacles
                have all electrics which suffered of this cleaned - dried
(GEARBOX!)
Interior: have carpet , seat foam and covers replaced - taken out asap to
prevent rust.

I'll try to find the name of the Dutch guy, who had this same experience two
years ago.
His MG was parked with many other classic cars in a greenhouse near the city
of Delft in the west of the Netherlands.
This part of the country then was severely flooded.
It was discussed on this newsgroup if my memory serves me well.

I'll try this tonight....and ask him to offer you some advise.

Cheers,

Hans
