MW - No one's ever particularly attractive in Tezuka's art style, but Yuki is most definitely a bishounen. He's supposed to be incredibly beautiful.
Black Cat - For the anime, the characters were redesigned to be super-bishounen to pull in more female viewers. Add that to the ridiculously homoerotic relationship between the protagonist and the antagonist and you've got a shounen that seems to be rather more popular with girls.
Kimi to Boku - All the bishounen types to fill a well-stocked harem.
Mahou Shounen Majorian - The fact that it's marked as "shotacon" but not any other genre that would denote a shotacon relationship should tip you off. The boys are just that cute.
Mousou Shoujo Otakukei - A shoujo-ish art style and boys that resemble typical shoujo bishounen.
No Bra - Another shounen with a crossdressing boy.
Orphen - I liked the main when I was around eleven, but he's really just a typical shounen lead. His cute uke sidekick Majik, though, fits the bill.
Neji to Lantern - A handsome butler.
Sayonara Zetsubou-sensei - The definitive megane bishounen. And he rocks that hakama.
Terra e... - It's by Keiko Takemiya, so of course all the males are ridiculously pretty!
Yotsubato! - I rather like Yanda and Koiwai (in bed).
Sangatsu no Lion's lead is another cute megane bishounen.
And my own, already mentioned favorites:
Oh lordie, I agree with The Medicine Seller of Mononoke. Only time I've ever actually been attracted to a drawing was during those twelve blissful episodes. He gave me a kitsune mask fetish, I think.
And, well, I've always had heart-flutters for Ginko from Mushishi and Spike from Cowboy Bebop, but neither of them could really be called bishounen. Well, Spike might be.
Oh hey, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought the main of Homunculus was hot!

As someone previously stated, the bishounen lead is all based on a person's preference, well, more specifically mine. To be honest, he's not considered gorgeous or anything, probably just handsome within the series, but I kid you not when I say that I am practically carrying a torch for Kuroe of Blood Alone. His character design may be rather simple, but he's probably one of the most attractive male seinen leads I've ever seen~♥

Is it just me or are some people starting to throw the "Shounen/Seinen" part out the window?

Nope. It's not just you. One of the last few of posts went so far as to mention yaoi?!
Not to criticize, but really - stay on topic, people! The OP is asking for handsome leads in shounen or seinen manga; specifically because such a thing is so very difficult to come by. Everyone knows that guys in shoujo, josei and BL are prettied up for the sake of the fangirls!
Anywho ~ here are my contributions. They're manhwa webcomics, but are tagged as shounen so they should still work, right?
Noblesse - Rai, definitely. Even all the characters in the story comment on how handsome he is.
Imo S. I. D. has some pretty good-looking male leads as well; both on the protagonists' and the antagonists' sides.
This has already been mentioned twice before, but I've just gotta say it; the medicine-seller from the Mononoke anime has the kind of mystical charm and atypical good looks that I have honestly never seen before -- even in manga / anime.
But of course, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder...

I-Ren - The pretty boy male lead makes a pretty girl.
Torikago Gakkyuu & Yumekui Kenbun have some pretty art and pretty people if I remember.
FURUYA Usamaru has gorgeous art.
Nurarihyon no Mago demon Rikuo sure is a looker!
Hokenshitsu no Shinigami Hades Sensei is bishie!
Zetsuen no Tempest - those boys on the cover certainly do look feminine...
Samurai High School - the male leads are good looking...

!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, Vagabond certainly is teh pretteh (must add that to my list!), but that missing manga I was looking for was actually different, I think - the guy on the cover was REALLY feminine, I mean I actually thought he was a woman at first, long straight hair and just that air of androgyny, and I even remember one of the reviewers for that series saying: "Uh, don't mind the cover, the manga's actually really manly." Or something along those lines. Lol!
tastes in guys?

Noblesse fit your requirement exactly
because Rae is an Ultra-Bishi (mainly because he is not human but not only)
I wonder if Frankenstein is an Ultra-Bishi too (his personality ruin that status but he still is a Bishi)
