I have an engine minus the heads and intake sitting in the garage. Threw a cover over it but its gotten some dust/dirt collected on it. What would be the best way to clean it up? Just using a wet towel? The engine is freshly machined so theres not any grease or carbon buildup, its just been sitting too long.

Carb cleaner and a dry towel

my dad always told me to cover the machined surfaces w/ vaseline to protect from rust. so i would say after cleaning it to coat it in vaseline to prevent rust.

I am NOT a fan of the vaseline idea, its too hard to clean off, I would soak it with wd40 (clan be cleaned off with brake or carb cleaner when your ready to assemble.
