The main thing I would be worried about is bugs. Who knows what lives on that log. You could bake it, boil it, or submerge it for a bit though to cure that.
Experts correct me if I'm wrong.

Guess ive uses lumber from the back yard with no issues. Not saying that there couldnt be potentioal for some types of parasites though.

Remeber Softwood gives off toxic fumes when headed.

If it was me doing it i would:
Wrap it in foil, like you stated, and bake it at 200F. The time would depend on the size. For a small rock or piece of drift wood i would bake it of 2 hours and then increase the times from there.
