damage depends on where it's coming from. if it's a leak from under the
manifold/head gasket interface, it can cause expensive damage. if it's
simply a cracked manifold, [most likely], further damage is probably
trivial beyond the need to spend $$$'s on replacing the thing. just
drive until noise/fumes/emissions become an issue for you.
