Leak checking of components downstream of the LP cock?

On the other hand Airbus have an oddball system where the engine should not be cranked unless the components are wet IE lubricated.
You have to trip a CB to 'fool' the engine and keep the HP valve closed. so wet cranking still remains 'dry' if you know what I mean.
