I had one broken stud and ran it for about 3 years including DE. Finally had the engine rebuilt at 140,000 miles (head stud plus cam seals leaking enough to attract attention from Exxon) and there was no sign of any damage. I don't think I've ever read about someone doing damage to the heads by running the engine for even a few years.
