Yes, bp's are very head shy. Sometimes over time they get used to your touch, but it really depends on the snake.
I use common dish soap. But you can use a 5-10% bleach solution or chlorohexadine.
Bp's cannot be trained. They will do whatever they want. Most likely he is just looking for warmth or a dark place to hide. Maybe if you have a blanket on your lap with a little opening into a cave, he might go into it and chill, but don't expect it.
Yes, if handled too often they can become stressed. It's a good rule of thumb to handle (once they settle in to a new home) maybe two times a week for up to 30 minutes. But there's no real definitve amount of time.
