thanks man i plan to hit up the junkyard tomorrow and see if i can get a valve cover and some other stuff i need

 

I would put that valve cover back on until you get another. You don't want to take a chance on getting something in the engine.

 

im going today to get a new valve cover so it wont be uncovered long...i also shut the hood so nothing falls in
