Turbo power, activate!

I overheated my engine for 15 mins driving to work (temp all the way) on my stock 13b n/a. The heater hose below the oil filter had a small pin hole leak from oil drips.
The engine is still running like a champ 4k miles later
Of course different engines will differ, but usually in your case 5 mins of over heating at 225F is not that bad, even with a turbo.
Am I sane enough to say that 225F temperature is not even high enough to make any kind of damage to the engine?

there is no leak...
My efan didnt turn on at 180*f when it suppose to, then i shut it down. While my car was shut down, i wired the efan directly to batt (so it turned on) and drove home that way (the water temp drop to 180*f).
I suspect the relay or sensor take a dump...but just worried about my motor. I will do compression test at mazda dealer later this week.
