just make sure you oil the journals and everything you can. You want to keep rust from starting, thats your major concern

You should get a quart of engine oil, saran wrap and maybe a bag of terry cloths. get some latex gloves and put them on and get a lot of oil on your hands. Now slather it all over the crank. Now thoroughly soak the terry cloths in the oil and wrap it around the crank, then wrap all of it in saran wrap and try to make it as airtight as possible.

The only thing I would be worried about is the terry cloth leaving particles behind on the crank. That might cause trouble later on.

i would use marvel mistery oil. That is what I fog our engines out with every year at the end of summer works great.
