How to store the stock cam? Ok guys getting ready to do my cam swap next week I'm all set but I'm wondering how to properly store the stock cam? I want to keep all the stock parts should I ever need to return it to the original state. I was going to pull the stocker, put it in some cellophane and put it in the box for the new cam. Should I put oil, assembly lube or grease on it to prevent corrosion? It will be stored for several years.

I took mine and just stuck it in the bag and box my new cam came in. My buddy put assembly lube on his and wrapped it up like a mummy. His is rusting, mine is perfect.
