Chance of HSV-2 Infection?
I received a handjob with lube from a woman with genital herpes. There were no lesions or sores on her hand, but her finger might have made contact with my urethra opening. She said she doesn't have a current outbreak, but prior to the act, she had to use the restroom, so I wonder if that could have gotten enough of the virus on her hands to transfer it to me? Her mouth didn't make contact with my penis.
Is there a good chance I've been infected from any of this?

The only time a person could contract herpes from a hand job is from herpes Whitlow. I did not mention this because its rare and most often is with the dental profession with hsv1. And the only time you could contract it is if she had an open hand sore as it does not shed. And if she had an open hand sore with herpes, she would not give you a handjob as the pain would be too great.
Other than that you cant get it from a handjob, like her touching her vagina then touching you. Hsv2 is considered sexually transmitted only.
