I think there's data on Toluene that it can be harmful to other parts. I seem to remember some info on the harm it may cause to rubber and silicone products. Use it with care and caution.

Here's the precautionary warning given by the most prominent maker of Toluene (ALLPRO Corp.):
DANGER! HARMFUL OR FATAL IF SWALLOWED. FLAMMABLE LIQUID & VAPOR. VAPOR HARMFUL. VAPORS MAY CAUSE FLASH FIRE. CONTAINS TOLUENE. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Vapors are given off rapidly during use and may ignite explosively. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel long distances to other rooms or lower areas. DO NOT use in confined areas such as basements or bathrooms. Open all doors and windows to provide plenty of fresh air cross ventilation equal to outdoor conditions. DO NOT smoke. Extinguish all flames and pilot lights, and turn off stoves, heaters, electric motors and other sources of ignition during use and until all vapors are gone. Vapors may linger for 30 minutes or more after use. If you smell Toluol, vapors are still present. Do not turn ignition sources on or relight pilot lights until certain that all vapors are gone. Avoid rubbing; friction may cause static electric sparks which may ignite vapors. Do not attempt to start or re-ignite charcoal, wood or any other fire with this product. An explosive fire may result or fire may flash back into the can and explode. For disposal guidance of unused product, contact a household hazardous waste program, or your local or state government environmental control agency.

Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling contents may be harmful or fatal.
