Run down to Home depot and buy a couple of Plastic Dry-Z-Air cannisters and some packages of calcium chloride. I use this stuff to keep my boat upholstery from getting moldy. Of course, this won't help you if you have a leak...

Parking in a nice climate-controlled garage helps, but not everyone has that luxury.
Another problem with moisture & your dub is when it forms in the crankcase, (you know.. when you take off the oil cap & there is that gross mayo-sludge in there)
