Engine painting

[Marty Bricker <mbrickerusn@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm getting ready to put my 258 back together after
bringing it back from the shop.  It's all cleaned up
and ready to go but I'm not sure about painting.  In
spite of my best efforts of drying it quickly there
some areas of very light surface rust.  Problem is
that it's down in the rough casting so I can't seem to
get it out.  Will it be ok to spray the epoxy primer
coat over this?
Is it better to put the enire engine together and then
paint it or do the seperate parts (ie oil pan, block,
head, etc).  If I wait until it's all put together I'm
sure there will be oil drippings on the outside,
what's the best way to clean this up (engine cleaner,
brake cleaner, carb cleaner, Simple Green?).  Thanks.
Marty
