How do you join lead to lead pipes?

You can put the steel pipe inside of the lead and melt the lead to seal it. That's takes experience and some talent. You can join them with a rubber sleeve that is the right size on each end and held in place with hose clamps. One cannot solder/ lead wipe lead to steel as one is ferrous and the other non ferrous metal You can lead wipe /solder lead to copper /bronze / brass To join to steel one had to lead wipe a brass nipple (called solder nipple) into the lead pipe and you have either male or female threads and then a union or left and right nipple and coupling to make a proper connection.'' By the way you cannot do a lead poured joint of steel into lead you can put the steel into a cast Iron hub and then use a caulked joint. Also the use of a no hub or a mechanical coupling will not be good for a water or gas tight against a lead pipe as lead is to soft.
