Gai can take this as long as he doesn't waste time in dealing with Deidara once he takes flight.
Of course, we all know that if Deidara stays on the ground, he stands no chance in this match up whatsoever due to Gated Gai's overwhelming speed and power. On the ground Deidara is limited to measly C1 since anything higher would end up getting himself killed as well. So he'll make it his priority to get into the air.
At this moment, he'll probably start firing off C2 bombs at Gai, but of course I have no doubt in my mind that Gated Gai should be able to avoid them no problem. Since Gai only has 1 move in his arsenal that is capable of taking out Deidara once he gets in the air, he's going to waste no time at all in using it, especially since he has knowledge of C4.
Now, Hirudora completely dwarfs anything in Deidara's arsenal and it completely dwarfs any Human Sized object, making it difficulty to completely avoid it due to its AoE. See that spot at the end of Hirudora? That is Gai. [

, Hirudora starts off as a big ass missile, is fired off at the opponent, and then compresses itself and explodes, on command might I add, which is signaled by Gai's "

and Naruto and Kakashi, despite being on the other side of the battlefield with Gai and Killer B.
Once Deidara takes flight, all Gai has to do is enter the 7th Gate, launch Hirudora, let it explode and the AoE alone will catch Deidara and completely eradicate him, so the missile doesn't even need to directly hit him. The worst it would do is knock him down, which allows Gai to finish him off via a widespread Asa Kujaku, but I highly doubt he's going to evade something that massive, when it can be fired that fast. There's also the fact that Hirudora will plow right through any bomb Deidara fires during this period.
