I don't have a picture of it, but there was no visible damage inside the tire at all. It looked completely undisturbed. I assume that the "Vectran" layer stopped the tear from getting any deeper than the surface rubber.

Thanks all, from the sound of it I'm not going to worry about it too much. I'll glue it shut and boot it for good measure.
