I wouldn't use it the way it is - I'd be worried the puffed cell would go ahead and vent or whatever and damage everything around it. Discharging it with the puffed cell attahced or charging it that way is asking for trouble.

If you're comfortable doing it, take the pac apart and make it a 3S pack and re-shrink it.
