If your question is about harm to the engine, and it is a gasoline (Petrol) engine, the answer is "none". If it is a diesel engine, and you put gasoline/petrol in it (like my wife did once) it will soon come to a stop. You will need to get a tow to a dealership and have the fuel tank emptied. It should not have any problems thereafter.
If your question deals with harm to the environment, that is a completely different issue and beyond the scope of this forum.
