I have read this concern over finger prints and oils on tubes, and it is unfounded. Would you expect soldiers to wear white cotton gloves every time they needed to change or re-seat tubes in their radios? Plus, if you look at the Woo owner's manuals, they show someone seating tubes with bare fingers.
Bottom line, no need to worry. Tubes can take a pretty decent beating. I'm not saying to go ahead and abuse them, but they need to be babied like some people do. Do you wear gloves to change a light bulb? Do you turn on a light bulb and then only turn it off after it's been running for a minimum of an hour? Are you scared of smoke ruining a light bulb?
logic: it's a wonderful thing!
