Is this good / bad. I'm not too sure just to leave it as it is.
comments please.

I advice to repair it ,a repair kit costs 7 quit and will last
Right now the airflow is a bit restricted for full throttle maybe you wont notice powerloss because diesels operate on airexcess
If that is taken away you get your power but with a lot of soot ,but you wont notice soot because of the sootfilter, wich will regenerate like crazy wich costs fuel and dillutes motoroil
