I wouldn't put oil on it though. Give it a spray of WD40 or similar to displace any moisture. Better still, dry it all out and coat the joints with silicone grease to seal it against future water ingress (if that's what the problem is).

Haven't seen any blue sparks probably cause I'm to busy shouting at the bike tho I have sprayed the coil and ht lead and spark plug with wd40 lol till I can get a better look at it lol
