probably ought to clean up the top clamps as well....

get that gas out of the bottom end asap as it will harden the crank seals if you leave it in there too long.... re fill the crank case with oil immediately.
or it will flash rust on you....
myself I would re fill it up to the top where the gas was at.... turn it through by hand a few times then drain it back down to the proper level....
that's probably not all that necessary, but I think I'd do that.

Thanks.
It’s probably been in there for years and I don’t want to turn the engine over until I’ve had a better look inside, so would it be better to drain and use fogging oil for now?
