Trans oil in coolant

About a Month ago the Trans oil cooler line that runs thru
the radiator in my '91 9000t (Not the long small radiator that sits beneath the main rad but the main rad itself)blew within the radiator and allowed transmission fluid to enter the cooling system...the resulting mixture of Trans fluid and water caused a boil over back thru the reservoir and all over the engine..
After a new radiator was installed the entire system was flushed with a T-Tec machine and all looked good.
I just remembered I should have added Bars Leak after the flush (like I normally do) so...today when I removed the top of the coolant reservoir...the liquid inside was dark brown and oily...(it is not motor oil)
I will have the system re-flushed tomorrow
My question is would there be any permanent damage from driving for at least a month with this mix ?? Has anyone else had a problem like this?
Thanks
