If it's just water then you can take it apart, let it dry and put it back together. You can and probably should use a liquid called contact cleaner (by CRC and others I think) that comes in a spray can. It cleans electonics equipment without leaving residue. Give it a shot.

If you don't want to do that I'd like to make an offer. What generation is it BTW? You can send me a PM if you prefer.

I guess it would just be used as a salvage unit and any parts that could possible work would be tested and then used in other units if they worked!

Just a guess!
