If it's AFTER the catalytic converter, it probably won't do any serious damage.

When exhaust gas leak under your car there a definite possibility that the dangerous gas can get into the cab (passenger section). So it is only prudent get exhaust leaks fixed.

besides loss of power and gas mileage due to low back pressure, i had a muscle car w shorty pipes and the fumes would fill my car, still effects my memory to this day. have it welded or go to a junkyard and replace the part.
