Default oil & Antifreeze blown out of intake

This truck is killing me! Just changed freeze plugs, fixed all my wiring issue. Attempted to Started truck and it blew oil and antifreeze out of the intake. I can look down into the intake and there is oil and water sitting at the bottom of it. So when I try to turn it over it seems locked up maybe hydrolocked with fluid in the cylinders. So my question is did I blow a head gasket or is the block cracked some where. Or is the problem much worse and I just need to abandon this motor and put a new one in it !

What freeze plugs did you replace? DId you drain the oil and water prior to removing them?

Pull the glow plugs and crank it over to clear the cylinders. Then you can reinstall them and attempt to fire.

I replaced the leaking block plugs. One popped all the way out so there was nothing to drain. I didn't drain the oil. I will pull the glow plugs and give it a crank and see what happens. Thanks for the advice..Hopefully i will blow it clean and she will run..
