Well, If like you say, the car was running (and running well) recently, I also feel that cracking into a working system will only invite glitches. That said, the best way I can figure to get some kind of preservative into your fuel distributor would be to put some kind of fuel stabilizer in your fuel tank and just bypass the RPM relay making the pump circulate it back to the fuel distro. The disadvantage to that is your fuel system is already drained and it would mean reintroducing fluid back into it. If you really are planning on being back together in a little under a year, I wouldn't worry about it too much. If, like Dave Titlebaum says, "short-term storage turns into years" then around Pigeon Forge time, you should start thinking about pumping some fresh fuel and stabilizer through the system and draining it again. In this regard, I'm not the "authority". I'm just throwing suggestions into the ring but I hope that helps.
