And for myself, as I'm considering cashing in my warranty, at what range of lead levels are considered high?

Every engine is different. Some will consistently show 0, so anything >0 is considered high, and others will consistently show 10, so anything above 10 would be high.

This is why you want to do reports over time and establish a baseline.
