What conditions was it stored in? Climate, moisture, etc?

Edit: I would change the oil, and give the engine a good once-over and run it. Short of a full rebuild you may want to pop the fan out and make sure there aren't mice nesting on top of the engine inside the shroud. That would be a small amount of work to make sure you don't completely ruin a runner.
