Provided the water was originally in a mist it will not likely collect anywhere while the engine is running. Consider at just 1,000 rpm you are going to be moving around 69,000 litres of air per hour (don't have a pounds conversion handy and it would depend on temp) - when you consider the velocity of that volume of air the little bit of water being injected will not be able to pool or collect anywhere.
