Wrapped in plastic!

Paul,
your crank should come back from the machine shop wrapped in a plastic wrap like Glad wrap and be coated in a grease or lubricant to stop it from surface rusting! If it doesn't you could always get the crank machined and then coat it with a good machine grease and wrap it in glad wrap yourself and put it on the shelf until you are ready to prepare for the install!
I too am in the process of my first FE rebuild as well and this is how My engine build has my crank sitting right now along with my heads.
Great feeling isn't knowing you are build up one of the best Engines ever build (IMO).
