you cant blow a coolant seal wihtout knowing it. if you blew one you would have huge clouds of coolant steam coming out of your exhaust.

you probably just broke loose a bunch of rust and **** from your cooling system. do a coolant flush and refill, and you should be fine. if you start using coolant, then you can worry.
