If you can get the PS pump back on, and maybe disconnect the generator wires.

It takes a couple minutes to get the block warmed up, and even then you'll have some convection circulating the coolant. Keep an eye on the temp gauge, shut down when it gets to normal operating temp.

My 1/2t Command Car lost a belt on the freeway once. The air blowing on the fan pumped enough water to keep it cool on the road. but the generator was motorizing, making the ammeter read poorly. No long term ill effects, the motorizing kept the generator fan spinning, no meltdown there.
