Default How do you store engine internals

What method do you use to store engine internals, crank, rods and pistons, only need to store for 2 weeks, any suggestions. I can not leave them in the block.

Keep them in a container full of cheap oil?

Store the crank upright or it could warp.

Spray everything down really well w/ some WD-40. This will keep everything well lubricated and will keep the metal from oxidation (i.e. rust). Be sure to keep everything in a plastic bag, or some similiar container; best of luck!
