Bad Pulley
I had a pulley on my LS that ceased up on me. I heard it going and had it checked. Was scheduled to take it in this week to get fixed. Well, it didn't wait and it ceased and I lost the belt somewhere on the highway. Made it home after that (maybe 3 miles) with no other issues. Being that it was running without the water pump going, should I be worried about and damage.

If you were wise enough to know that a pulley was going bad , you were obviously smarter than to operate the engine at extreme heat , correct?
So you broke a Serpentine Belt? If this was a serpentine belt then your only worry here is heat , this is very different than a broken timing belt on a interference engine ( 95 & newer LS models). That would be bad news!!!

No permanent harm done to the car at all when the serpentine belt breaks.
