Default hole in exhaust manifold!

I removed my heat shield the other day on my exhaust manitofold and one of the heads of the bolts snapped. When I was drilling it out I went too far and went all the way through. My question is: Is it allright to drive with it like that for a couple of days or is this going to do any dammage to my car? thanx.

There are some goop that when mixed together forms a liquid metal, its used to fix manifolds. A friend used it to fix his cracked eclipse turbo header. No leak. Dont remember what its called. You can buy it in autostores.

Its not going to hurt anything, just make the car a little louder. Youll lose a little back pressure, and get a little extra exhaust smell inside the car, but not any damage to the motor.
