Depends.

Contact on the arm as you described it...no.

Body contact that is a result of the block attempt...depends on how hard.

If B1 had no angle to get the block without subsequently crushing A1, I'll call the foul. B1 only got the block through a play that resulting in a lot of contact.

If A1 is off balance and B1 nudges A1 such that A1 falls, no call. B1's contact was not the reason A1 went down...incidental contact.
