ZDDP oil additives 700

I stumbled across an article today about how ZDDP (zinc and phosphorous additives) are being slowly eliminated from modern oils.

Should my 92 745 (B230F) be concerned? If I know what a flat tappet is (and I'll admit that I may not) I'm pretty sure my brick has 8 of them.....
