A product I have used with some sucess is called Fluid Film. It is made from lanolin. I have sprayed a whole can of this in the four cylinders. I left it for a few days. I would never use anything but crank to free the engine. Even after getting it free I would spend 3-4 days turning engine with plugs out until you get whatever product you use worked down the cylinder walls and rings. You want those rings freed up. If this works and engine is free after about a week I would try to start. With all that liquid in there you will probably have to tow with engine turning to dry it off a bit. Rocking tractor in fifth gear , maybe? Never tow a frozen engine and jump clutch in 5th gear, you will most certainly break something.
