You say you got water in the gear box, so the vehicle has been in some deep water then.
Now that noise could be front/rear wheel bearing, have you checked the oil in the front and rear diffs for water.
Brakes all you can do is ti try and isolate the noise as to where it is coming from my first thought would be the front wheel bearings.

Does it change with speed or load. IE if you go around a left hander does it get louder or change pitch etc?

also check uni joints on the short jackshaft between g/box and t-case.
Check g/box and t-case are full of clean oil, bearings get noisy when they are running dry especially if you got salty water in there

put your transfer case in neutral and then start the car and run it through the gears.
chances are if there is no noise it is wheel bearings.
