Unleaded fuel was introduced so catalytic converters could be used, that much is true, but it has SFA to do with the type of oil used. Cars are like 1000 times cleaner than the old-school carbie leaded engines of old, and it's mostly thanks to catalytic converters and electronic engine management... both of which are made possible with unleaded fuel. An old-school engine running on the "sweetest" leaded fuel in the world won't come close in terms of emissions.
