Default Question about open header

Ok guys i bent my exhaust real bad smashed it on an aprin. My question is, my friend said he can fix it with a machine he owns. But it will take him a couple days, unfortuityl this is my daily drivier and the day he has the exhaust iam going to need the car for work and school. Will it hurt the motor to drive it open header?.. i no it sounds like garbage, but i have no choice.

I have heard that bending a valve can be an issue in cold climates with no headers (or a badly leaking one) do you have LT's?
