So, if BA can only check the bag through to HEL, I probably will have to go through immigration in HEL and then claim my bag, right?
At least AY has the policy to check your back to all connecting OW flights even when they are on a separate ticket. I would guess that BA is likely to have a similar policy and that, in your case, the AY flight number qualifies as OW.
If you cannot check your bag all the way to LED, then you need to clear the immigration both ways at HEL.
Edit: Actually AY used to have a policy to check your back to any connecting flight but they've restricted that to all OW flights and/or connecting flights on same ticket now.
