Whether or not a car will pass inspection with the Check Engine light on is up to the state or county giving the test. As long as the car passes an emissions test, it should be fine.

What do you look out for if you want to buy a used car?

Rust, transmission problems, engine problems, A/C problems, & emissions problems. Make sure the Check Engine light is working and is not staying on after you start the engine. Check for structural damage to the car indicating it has been in a severe accident. Check for oil leaks. Two things you can do to make sure you get a good car is to check with Car-fax and the have the vehicle inspected by a trusted mechanic. This will be money well spent and up the odds of you getting a good car. If the seller refuses to allow you to have the car inspected by a mechanic of your choice walk away.

The engine will not reach operating temperature and the check engine light will illuminate. I don't see it damaging the engine but it can't do the catalytic converter any good.
