Not in the short term, but long term running without the balance belt causes damage due to vibrations (e.g. fuel rail cracking, oil pickup tube cracking). Fix it soon and you will be OK.

If you are fixing a broken belt I'd say its time to replace all the belts. I believe its recomended to replace the water pump with the belt changes but I didn't.
Good luck, John
