I doubt that you did any permanent damage. If it is too far out of level the coolant can’t flow back to the boiler - it’s gravity fed through those zig-zag tubes on the back. That will keep the unit from cooling and cause the boiler to overheat. Like a pot boiling dry on the stove. It’s a small fire hazard but since you didn’t burn down you should be good. Overheating the copper lines also can make them brittle and prone to cracking. If that happens you’ll be permanently damaged but it’s not likely if it only happened the once and didn’t get left that way. There is a device you can get that will shut the burner off if it starts to overheat.
