Default Long term storage...oil in or not?

If I am going to have a finished engine in the "sit around" mode for a few months should I fill the motor with engine oil or leave it enpty.
I drained it after break-in and have lubed the interior of the cylinder walls, run the fuel system dry, released the rocker arm pressure etc.
I have heard varying stories about moisture accumulation within the block and was curious about how others here have addressed this.
