Lead additive is used to raise the octane rating and lube the valves...
That is a low compression engine, reg pump gasoline will work fine... the issue with valve lube should not be a problem. That engine should have adequate cooling at the valves. KennyV

The N Fords had hardened valve seats. I would think that the Fergies, with their common heritage, would be likewise and not need the lube.
