In me limited exposure to the systems I'd say if there is no actual
puncture/s and if the dents do not significantly constrict the movement
inside and there is no surface prep damage inside the cavity (you can't
determine this really) i.e. flaking treatment, if any exists, you may be
good.  It shouldn't cost you a dime to have a HVAC pro give it a quick look
tho'.
