Default engines out of wrecked cars

Should I do anything to my engine while it is still in the wrecked car?Drain the oil?Coolant? I plan on doing the swap in a couple months.

How large is the chance of internal engine damage? I looked at the engine and the battery is pushed up against the distributor.Thats about the only visible damage I can see.Do you think my mounts will be bent?I plan on swapping into an ek/eg would it even matter?
