Christ is the leader of the church. Period. It is His church. He is it’s head. At no time was Peter, or any man the head of the church. At no time.

Yes, I agree with you. However, what we mean by "leader of the Church", is Christ's point of contact on the earth. Christ would instruct Peter and Peter would delegate to the others.
A great example of this is Revelation 1.
1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
God the Father gives to Jesus, who then gives to His servant John, who writes it down and gives it to the people.
