Lead is used to protect the valve seats, not the valve stem seals. I'm almost certain that an 18R-C will already have hardened valve seats which should cope fine with unleaded fuel, but even if it doesn't it's unlikely the valve seats will recede enough to make any difference before the engine needs a rebuild anyway. Valve recession is generally a very slow process, unless you have an old crappy 202 or something with an iron head.
