Pretty hard to tell it's lithium from a cursory inspection

and there relative rarity makes that question unlikely.

Also, the lithiums used in vehicle batteries are NOT lithium-ion like a laptop battery. They're lithium iron and alot more chemically stable.

But . . . common knowledge is that "lithium is lithium".

You'll be fine unless you draw attention to it.
