Hey guys, i just picked up a mint jdm 7mgte, but the buyer before had the intention of building the motor and mid-way through gave up on the project. Nonetheless the motor was mostly together besides the removal of the oil pan. Now the motor was covered up but had sat in a shop for a couple months and accumulated some saw-dust on the short-block portion / mainly crank.

What steps should be taken to prevent any engine failures on startup, is there a quick solution or will i need to tear down the motor?
Thanks

Best bet would be to rebuild. And since it's a Jdm engine and 20 years old. There's no telling how many miles and how beat up it is.
