No matter what that engine is coming out for at the very least a partial teardown and inspection, no easy shortcuts on this.
If you live where it’s cold and moist during the winter there’s a good chance the entire crankcase has rusted up if all that came out of the drain plug opening was brown dust (rust?).

No, I didn't drain the oil when I parked it.
I had not expected to find this problem for sure. Might be parked a lot more years if I need to tear it down.
It's more like cold and cold during the winter, but I hear what you're saying. Might very well be as you say.
