Definitely don't fix it, IMO. Odds are high you'll never have a problem ...
I have to concur here. On the Spridget list, concerning BMC A series
engines, a bit more high strung than the TRactor engines, there was a lot of
concern a few years ago, but several years of no-lead had no real results so
far as
wear or damage.

As he stared at her ample bosom, he daydreamed of the dual Stromberg
carburetors in his vintage Triumph, highly functional yet pleasingly formed,
perched prominently on top of the intake manifold, aching for experienced
hands, the small knurled caps of the oil dampeners begging to be inspected and
adjusted as
described in chapter seven of the shop manual.
