I'm no expert— but from what I understand, the only really risky part is in the remelter where lead oxides form. When just handling lead type— an alloy of tin, elemental lead, and antimony— unless you actually ingest it (where it can mimic calcium in deleterious way in larger amounts) then it's not very dangerous, so handwashing before eating, etc. is good enough.
