Actually 300 hrs a year is a lot more than many privately owned aircraft clock up. If it has been flown on a few days a week rather than on a few days each month, it will be much less prone to internal corrosion.
You don't say what type of engine it is, but if it can be run on a suitable multigrade oil that goes a long way to addressing the cold-start oil viscosity issues.
