Certainly a concern, but not a certainty. I recently bought an O-360 that had not run since the mid 1990s and was not preserved in any way. Internal parts were spotless, nothing inside the crankcase needed to be replaced. The exhaust ports were eroded from use, but the cylinder bores and rings were fine.
So check it out, but don't rule it out.
