How much damage do damaging wormholes do? If I pump up the armor on a ship, is it safe to go through?

Thanks!

The default damage for an unstable warp point in StellarAbilityTypes.txt is 200.

Yes, you have the idea. Shields don't help against warp point (or storm or mine) damage but armor does.

[edit: damaging storms also have default damage of 200 per StellarAbilityTypes.txt. Also note that this damage is applied to each ship that passes through the sector.]
