Hello,
I've asked Interactive Broker what option pricing model they using and they replied that they are using the “Bachelier” option pricing model. I can't find it here:

I find it odd since you have an integration with IBKR for a long time. Are you planning to add it sometime?

Actually, it would also be easier in live trading: LEAN can directly pass the Broker's Provided Greeks into the LEAN system. That will make sure everything is consistent with the broker, instead of recalculating all Greeks on the fly (which is also inefficient.)
