Default Advice requested!

I have to leave the engine of the Jeep with the heads disassembled a couple of weeks (7) due to non expected business travel.

Any advice to prevent corrosion on the cams, block etc?
I had the idea to fill up the engine with cheapo engine oil, but what about the head contact area?

that and oil up some shop rags and lay them across the block then cover with sheet plastic or paper. Outside or inside?

How about Fluid Film? It would protect from the elements.
