Just had intake gasket done on 350 and I believe block was not drained properly if antifreeze was left in engine how fast would it wreck engine?
It would trash the engine bearings real quick. Antifreeze in the oil is a for sure engine getter. I just got done rebuilding a 98 350 vortec that had antifreeze in the oil do to the intake gasket leaking and all the engine bearings were trashed.

Why would coolant be leaking as soon as I add it?
I currently have this problem with my Grand Am. I was told that it was the intake manifold gasket a kind of costly repair if you can't do it yourself. A lot of GM vehicles have this problem because they use the coolant DEX-COOL which wear away at the manifold over time. Doing my own research I found out that most manifolds on cars who use this type ofcoolant should get their manifold changed at about 60,000 miles. Some wear down before then. I believe that GM has made a better manifold to which it wouldn't wear as fast but I know many repair shops I have spoken with recommend that I get my coolant system flushed to have it use another type of antifreeze.
Why is rpm so fast at idle on 1995 s10 blazer v6 vortec?
Check the gasket between the throttle body and the intake manifold. It may be blown out and creating a large vacuum leak causing the fast idle.
What causes fast idle on Honda Civic?
Vacuum leaks in the vacuum hoses or mixed up connections on them. Test by spraying starter fluid around intake manifold and vacuum lines.
What to do when engine runs too fast after installing intake manifold gasket?
You need to find the vacuum leak that is causing the high idle. You might have had a gasket slide out of place during install.
How do you change the intake gasket on a 1997 silverado vortex v8 350?
Which intake gasket? There are two gaskets between the intake manifold and the heads, one sealing the manifold to each head, plus a couple front/rear gaskets that seal out the crankcase oil. To get to those gaskets you need to remove the intake manifold. That involves removing a lot of peripheral stuff that's mounted on the manifold. Another gasket is between the manifold and the throttle body. That gasket is a lot easier, just remove the bolts holding down the throttle body, clean both surfaces and put the new gasket in place. If the engine is idling fast, sometimes it's just the EGR valve gasket. That's just two bolts then clean the surfaces and replace the gasket.
What would cause a 1995 Cadillac Concours idle to surge or be too fast?
You probably have a vacuum leak somewhere. Check your hoses and intake manifold and throttle body gaskets. Many possible issues, the links provided below may be helpful, especially if you can get a diagnostic trouble code from your vehicle.
What to do if a Chevy Malibu is leaking antifreeze fast?
Find the source and repair it.
What would cause a 93 Ford Tempo to suddenly start idling very fast then after replacing the mass airflow sensor and throttle position sensor the problem remains the same?

Why would Water come out oil drain plug?
when i add water to the rads the water comes out the oil drain just as fast. add air pressure pushes ot liquid just as fast. head gasket would not push water out this fast would it or would there be a hole in the piston wall or wondering if it would be the intake
