Lead can cause brain damage.
Tetraeythyl lead was added to gasoline to increase the octane rating and to lubricate the valves in the engine. It is highly toxic and has been phased out to protect air, water, and soil quality. New valves and valve seats are manufactured out of a phosphor-bronze alloy that is very wear resistant.
