Cement and SBR & a Lead Pipe

Hey everyone,

So I had a bit of a self-engineered ordeal yesterday. I was using an SBR slurry and a pot of 'U-Can Patch fill Concrete repair' to fill a small hole in a concrete slab before screed. Long story short, it ended up running over and some of it got on an out of use lead pipe.

I assume the lead pipe is the original water supply for the house, and for lack of other evidence I have to assume it's still live. I've read that cement and lead can react and cause it to corrode, although am I right in thinking that's more relevant if the pipe was being encapsulated in concrete?

Basically I am just trying to ascertain if some of the cement and SBR slurry being on the pipe is likely to cause an issue. Photo attached - thanks in advance for any direction on this.
