Not enough info (still).
Suppose the cylinder is 1 foot in diameter - the level would rise slightly.
Suppose the cylinder is 1 inch in diameter - it would rise 144 times as much.
----------------
16 grams of Fe --> 2.0356 cc
15 grams of PB --> 1.3274 cc
3.63 cc of water is displaced.
-------------------------------
The volume of water = pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah+=+137
h+=+137%2F%28pi%2Ar%5E2%29
After the addition of the metal:
h+=+140.63%2F%28pi%2Ar%5E2%29
