Avgas in the fuel won't hurt anything, the plane will run on it or a mixture. Jet fuel in avgas in any quantity will cause a piston engine to be badly damaged and quit. The reverse is not true, the lead in avgas is not especially good for jet engines, but that is a long term maintenance issue. There used to be a jet fuel that was commonly used that was a mix of gasoline and kerosene actually.
