There's no rule that states that the hands are not part of the bat.

There is also no rule that states that the toes, ears, or hipbone are not part of the bat.

Why would you need one. Hands are Hands. Bats are Bats.

Read the relevant rules about HBP - it does not say, "When a pitched ball strikes a batter, except of course on the hands, the ball is dead" It just says "When a pitched ball strikes a batter, the ball is dead," with the various rulings (swinging, not-swinging, ball, strike, etc.) coming after that.
