My engine from Lycoming, which was pickled, did not have dehydrator plugs. All 8 spark plugs were installed.
My engine was also firmly encapsulated in the cardboard shipping box (not a crate) and sealed in a big plastic bag. There were a couple bags dissicant, but not the resuable kind. If the bag is not sealed, or if the foam encapsulation is not present or broken up, or no bags of dessicant, then the engine has probably been exposed.
