no on the regular motor oil
honestly castor oil is the best for between runs and anything up to about a 2 month period , it doesnt foul the plug when you fire the engine back up and clears out easily as well as protects very good
1m2 not hard to find if you know where to look
1M2
the best after run care is dont run your engine out of fuel , just dump the tank

I've used this stuff for years and I have never had an engine issue even after an engine sits for a few years. One bottle will last forever. I started using it after realizing that the Hobbico after-run oil I was using was the same thing. Same color, smell, everything!

Have no need for after run oil...
I have personally found that when using a top quality fuel and not letting the engine run out of fuel as Houston suggested leaves behind a great coating of oil. I just pulled my Nova Plus 4 out that has been in storage for 6 months and it is perfect inside with no use of after run oil.
I currently use a locally sourced fuel called Bonz Brew but have found it to be one of the highest quality fuels money can buy. Great lube package and have found zero corrosion in my motors since switching.
Just my 2 cents worth.

Keep your engines in the house, in a controlled environment and you greatly reduce the chance of condensation forming in your engine. That along with quality fuel, will go a long way. I oil with synthetic atf if my engines are going to be sitting a month or more. It works for me....

I have always, and I mean ALWAYS used RP7 or WD-40 and I have never had any trouble BUT I have always been fully aware that the engines I use it on have not had filled cranks. If they did, I would use a specific after run oil.
With the engines I never have any grief starting them and I have tried machine oils and other oils but nothing seems to turn over quite as easily as an engine that's had RP7 or WD40 put through it after last use.
Just my two cents
