It was capsized about 10 year

It was capsized about 10 years ago and all he did to clean it was start it back up for about five minutes. Now I can't even turn the engine over at all because when I pull the cord it won't move. Any tips on what I should do please let me know thanks for all the time you have given.

That motor should have been run for at least 1/2 hr . Any water inside a motor leads to rapid rusting of the precision finished surfaces on bearings and the crankshaft.As was mentioned it is likely scrap and for parts only.
