All air filters get wet, even OEMs. When there in moisture in the air, the intakes are going to suck that in as well. The amount of moisture you get in these situations in negligible. To Hydrolock, you're engine would have to injest so much water that it would stop the piston from reaching the top of it's full stroke in the cylinder. Basically, this is not going tom happen unless the entire filter element is submerged.
