Only to the extent that if not wiped off they can cause rusting.

The oils in fingerprints contain a high level of salts. That's why everyone
who owns a Gun Shop spends time after they close wiping the guns with
a oiled cloth.
Blood is even worse, it's sure to cause rusting on anything that will rust.
