Yikes! There's no solid answer here...only opinions on what constitutes live rock. You've likely killed a bunch of "life", but many people would consider that to be a good thing and will likely want to replicate your technique!

There's no reason I can think of that you should be concerned about using it in your aquarium though. To some people, it is just porous biological filter medium with interesting shapes.

Thanks for the quick reply, but my concern is that porus biological filter medium is now containing damaging elements from the inside of the heater.

happened to me to when i was curring live rock,.. i broke the heater...
shouldn't be much of a problem most of the metals if any would be int he water
just put the live rock in some freah salt water... maybe rinse it off in clean saltwater to get any dead stuff off...
it should be perfectly fine..
