There's a picture in a reddit thread on this of someone who recently got a giant slug of water from the Signature FBO at Coatsville. They've had a bunch of rain there.
So many possibilities. The prop strike wasn't severe, right hit a taxiway light and left the runway edge on reentry, and fwiw they did the AD proceedure (but not a teardown). So it could be anything from a mag failure related to that, a simple crank fail, or a fueling issue. The fact that neither prop appeared bent or feathered ? Engines intact, no fire, so NTSB will get around to it eventually.

The left prop was bent severely, the right half missing.
