If you are going to turn over the engine by hand, then lift the right front wheel off the ground and put the engine in first gear -- this is with the plugs removed. Make sure you block up the car well - turn over the engine by rotating the wheel as it would in the forward direction.
Chaz has a good idea on the Marvelous Mystery Oil. I would put some in the crankcase as well. That will help pull any moisture out of the crankcase.
Or, you could use a product called Sea Foam -- 1/3 in the crankcase, 1/3 in the gas tank, and the balance when you start it up having it sucked up by a vacuum hose.
