I think it's very unlikely that Snape and Lupin did -anything- 
together.  I think it's more likely that Lupin and Sirius voiced 
concerns about Snape teaching Harry (I'm sure Lupin insisted they 
make sure Snape didn't know they did that of course), and Dumbledore 
assured them that Snape was a *superb occlumens*.
