Hiro thinks the article link is spam, but there's a 2013 study on supermarket tea samples in the Journal of Toxicology you can look up

I gave it a quick glance and it looks like Sri Lanka and India have the lowest lead levels of the sampled black teas, and also avoid using fine china teaware which adds 0.4ug/L all on its own.
That said, even the worst Chinese black teas would be safe for about 14L/day assuming you aren't getting any other lead in your diet.
