    I left my hood open with the airbox intake pipe off my car tonight and when i got home it was drizzling. I know water must get in there normally from rain, but just out of curiousity would this have been bad

    Water in the engine = bad. But, if it was minimal then probably not. It's all subjective as to how much you think got in there.

We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."
