You won’t get documented incidents because the stuff melts

Well of course you will – if ice was causing pistons to strike valves it would leave plenty of physical evidence in the form of wrecked engines where the piston struck the valve but with no evidence of anything being wrong with the valve timing or anything else that was broken that could cause that to happen. But it’s just not happening.
