As I was getting ready to drive the 914 to work, for the first time since I rebuilt the motor, I checked the oil and noticed beads of water on the dip stick. It rained pretty heavy yesterday and I belive water got in vent on the oil fill tower. Am I screwed? Am I going to need to pull the motor back apart?

Yep. Be safe and change the oil since you don't know how much water might be in there. Then fix it so no future water can get in, and you're all set.
