storing away motor

[CiscoBite1Time]

i have a mildly built motor that's pretty much done put together. it's currently on my engine stand and from the looks of it i probably won't be using it for a while ~ year or so. i dont want to sell it since i may need it later to drop in or if i'm desperate for money. none the less want to store it for the time being. is there any precautions i need to take other than plugging up all holes, ports, etc? would i have to worry about any corrosion?

I would wrap it in plastic and hit all the machined surfaces with wd-40.

I use about a teaspoon of Marvel Mystery Oil in each cylinder, and seal the cylinders with sparkplugs. Put the motor at TDC, and leave the timing belt off. It will need replacement after being stored that long anyway.
