Is the spillway the only overflow for the pond if the pipe isn't installed? Is the spillway concrete or dirt?
If it's the only overflow, the pond should have a regular spillway or pipe for water to exit during normal rain events, and an "emergency" spillway. If water is constantly trickling out the dirt spillway, it'll slowly eat a channel in it.
Regarding pipe going thru the dam. Could you put a liner or geotextile fabric where the pipe ends, and then put rip-rap on top of the liner/fabric to prevent erosion? Or, 45° the pipe and add more so it dumps on the ground at the very base of the dam.
