I purchased some used fuel injectors to replace the ones I had in that were sticking. I want to refurbish the ones that were in the car and keep them around for spares. Does anyone know how I would need to store them long term? Generally, I would imagine putting a bit of light oil in each one and sealing them in an air tight bag would keep them pretty fresh, but not positive.
Advise?

You can put some diesel fuel in each end then cap both ends and seal them in a bag. Probably some very light chassis lube or even Vasoline in each end and it should wash out with carburetor cleaner directed into each end with the little tube. I've used diesel fuel but I've never tried a grease. It's just a thought.

You can buy an inexpensive injector cleaning kit on eBay that uses a can of carburetor cleaner to clean the injector. Once the injector is clean and dried you can just put them in a box and store them for when they are needed.
