Distributor shaft

[further]

Guys,
While I'm replacing the manifolds and risers and fixing my leaky oil pan, I'm changing out the plugs, wires, cap and rotor. I pulled the cap off and after fighting with it for some time I decided to man up, grab it with two hands and pull with all my might. Well, that worked ... It was pretty well corroded on there but came off.... The shaft is pretty rusty....

Any recommendations on how to clean the shaft up and should I put some grease on it before installing the new rotor?
