Wowsers thats a bunch of bad luck all rolled into one. We've all been there though.
Ok, so what parts of the engine are open? And on most subarus that I've had the misfortune to work on you don't remove the engine to get the transmission out.

It's completely removed from the vehicle. He needed to do the valve cover gasket too........ It's in the intake and valves... :-/

Yep, the valve cover gaskets are a common problem. I would blow out the snow as already suggested before it can melt and cause rust or drip in further. Once thats done with all the spark plugs removed spin the engine over a few times(by hand) to make sure no water is in the cylinders. Then the last step when its all back together in the car and running do an oil change right away, and maybe even another oil change very soon.
Good luck and stay warm.
