Default generator storage

question on 3 year old generator (self-starter, battery equipped) stored unused for 3
years

if unit was stored drained from fuel, is there anything detrimental to the non-use,
assuming it was brand new, used for 60 to 90 minutes and then fuel was drained and
item stored ? the battery is totally dead of course, but what about the mechanical or
electronic parts?

oil sat for 3 years but is not colored dark, likely it would contain some moisture but
would it deteriorate just sitting?

anything else that I am not asking, but should ask ?
