Question for all the mechanical and chemical engineers out there.

If the diverter was made of lead, wouldn't the fuel/air flow slowly eat away at it. Kind of like a scarificial anode?

Also, if it did eat away at it, would that take the place of lead additive to the fuel for the knocking?

I've got JB Weld on an RC engine that works fine.
