It would not hurt to change your oil, and then run the car for about 20 min.
to get the oil temp up enough to evaporate out all of the moisture from the
crankcase.  Then....
Get out your trusty duct - err, I mean *racer's* tape and tape up the
throttle body, IACV, dipstick tube and exhaust ports.
Finally, put the whole motor in a garbage bag, twirl it, tie it, and save it
for a rainy day.
