Stn & The Old Lady - G - Intl

Having been one of the last "flying spanners" to operate on this a/c when it flew in from Amsterdam many years ago accompanied by those gentlemen in suits I am interested to know, like many others, what the future holds for this aircraft.
Reading the forum letters from other interested parties I see the rudders from another old lady at Manston have been fitted to INTL...I assume these were put through the workshops in the normal way before fitting as the Manston a/c has been sitting up on "The Wasp" nearly 6 years and in very salty conditions.
Can anyone out there tell me how they got over the "oil hiding" on #3 engine ?
