Nissan Micra - Replacing Timing Chain - westburry

I'm replacing the timing chains and sprockets and just wondering if I should put engine oil on them before putting on the timing cover or should I put them on as they are ( without oil ) and allow the engine to oil them when started ?

Thanks for your advice.
