Where are you seeing the 500 pieces of Han carvings? I clicked on the article source and only saw one. Could the other 499 have such symbols

Perhaps they could, but it would seem to me that, if there was anything specifically about Jesus, that fact would have been prominently mentioned. Since it is not mentioned, I think it is a reasonable assumption that it is not there.

Since story appears in the China Art News I'd suspect they picked the sample included, instead of Prof. Weifan. I would doubt that much of the staff are over-zealous about anything Christian. The Art News may need to publish the find but certainly don't need to publish evidence of the conclusions.
