I don't think you would damage the sizing die. The Lee die has a tapered mandrel as the neck expander, and it's quite hard. This should open up the neck before it gets very far into the die. You can also adjust the expander to sit lower in the die and push the primer out before the case gets sized by the die. If the necks are crushed closed, cut them off.

I have heard of using WD40 too, I've not tried it.
