I'd be a bit careful here. The extra oxygen provided by the pump makes sure that any un-burned fuel becomes burned before it hits the Catlytic Converter. Raw fuel in a hot Cat will melt it very fast.
Or course yo ucould install a "test pipe" for a few weeks and not worry.
All the best,

air pump actually is there to heat up the cat faster. this reduces cold start emissions.
it supplies oxygen to the rich exhaust to speed up the reaction in the cat.
