Well done Cameron,
Loved the story...... and the pics ....
I pull my winch down every couple of years and it is always perfectly clean and dry, but then I don't normally sit submerged for 20 minutes.
I would check it out, just to be sure - you may be able to loosen off the bolts a little on the motor and gearbox and crack them open a little, to see if any moisture comes out - if it doesn't then it is up to you if you want to keep pulling it down.
You can drop your winch out, without removing the bar too, by just removing the bottom bash plate.
