Although it may be easy in some cases to identify a blown rod, like the rod sticking through a hole in the engine, there is really only one way to know for sure. Pull the oil pan off and inspect the internal components.
It would be more cost effective to replace the blown engine with a re-manufactured one.

Assuming you are talking about a connecting rod, this condition is serious. More than likely there was extensive damage done to enternal engine parts encluding the engine block. I don't know what year and model vehicle you have but I would consider a total engine replacement with a new, rebuilt or good used engine rather than attempting to repair the original engine. I can't give you an aprox price without more information.
Water in the oil pan ( looks milky or creamy on the dipstick ) is indicative of a blown head gasket. If your head gasket is blown you may have warped the head, especially if the vehicle was overheated. The fix is to remove the head(s) and take it ( or them ) to a automotive machine shop to be inspected and possibly milled. While the shop is at it they should inspect the valves and replace any that are bad. When you get the head back you will need to reinstall it with new gaskets. This is a good time to replace your timing belt or chain ( and tensioners ) since you will have the thing apart anyway. If you continue to run the engine in this condition you will do serious harm to the engine.
Probably not.

Locked meaning blown?,no quick fix.
If you remove the head then of course you replace the head gasket.Where can you get sodium silicate to fix a blown head gasket?Know that adding sodium silicate to an engine is only a temporary fix for a blown head gasket and will not permantly fix the problem. The only permanent fix is to replace the head gasket. I would never add any head gasket fix material to any engine.
You can't. The only fix for blown head gasket is to replace it. Anything else is just a temporary emergency repair and will not last.
The best quick fix is to replace it as there is no quick fix. There are products that can be poured into the engine that claim to fix bad head gaskets. That's more of a "let's see if we can make this even more expensive" fix.
No it will not. The only thing that will fix a blown head gasket is to replace the gasket.
No, the only permanent fix for a blown head gasket is to replace it.
With a blown head gasket the engine will still run, poorly with issues, but run. A blown engine will not continue to run from that moment on.
you dont
Blown head gasket.
No, nothing will fix a blown head gasket except replacing it. Sealer are only used in an emergency situation as a temporary fix.
Do not pour any such product in your engine. If you have a blown head gasket the only fix is to replace the gasket. Those type products are only a temporary emergency fix.
