That should work. There can still be some oxidation, but it'll be minimized.
Metals like sodium are kept under heavier liquids, like kerosene or mineral oil, then something lighter like hexane is use to rinse off the oil.Magnesium powder under zippo fluid?
I'd favor something less volatile. Suppose the naptha ignited? KABOOM. Anyway, kerosine is cheap.
