Barnacle Buster

Impellers should not be damaged by the acid especially phosphoric as it is a fairly weak acid. Phosphoric acid is what is used as a rust converter or rust remover. Typically the raw water pump is not used to circulate the cleaning agent through then engine. Another pump is used and a closed loop is created to recirculate the cleaning agent around the engine. The impeller is removed if you connected at the seacock side of the impeller housing. 

Thanks Tom. In a 6.0L Crusader the raw water impeller does circulate raw water through the heat exchanger oil and emission coolers, and the risers. That is why I was concerned about the impeller.
