Default Why Would There Be Water in my oil??

Well I have a sbc 350 engine in my Camaro.
We took it to the track for the 1st time since the motor has been rebuilt.
The 1st 3 passes the engine ran great, the water temp on that run being 210 degrees. But after that we noticed a rocker that was Wayyy too lose on the #8 cylinder and resolved the problem. On the 4th run at about 5k rpms i heard a "puff" come the passenger side of the car and tried to restart it with no luck. While waiting on someone to retrieve me and the car i checked th oil and noticed water and bits of metal in the oil, along with water and oil comming out of the same side header.
Reminder: This is a new motor could the metal be from the new rings setting??
Please give me so possibilities of what could be wrong.
