you can look at lead dispersal another way.

if I take 23litres of avgas that is 23,000cc of avgas. I then spread it over 222km it ends up being a thread about 12lb fishing line. (I did work it out once quite accurately, but I forget the specifics) so of that 5% is lead.

5/8ths of stuff all really so go flying.
