So, I over tightened one of my valve cover bolts and ended up snapping it under the surface of the stud, so I tried to use one of those hammer in and turn screw extractors, but wasn't perfectly in the middle and I ended up cracking off the whole side of the stud, the one circled in red. I don't have a picture of my actual head, but I hope you can understand without it. I'm wondering if I can replace just the top piece that the valve cover bolt threads into (boxed in blue) or if I have to get a whole new system or what? I'd also like to know what that part is called.

You can NOT buy replacement cam caps. Even if you could, you really would need a line hone/bore to do it the right way. You could always take your chances with trying to find a spare used cap, but I think for all intended purpose, just get the ear welded back on. Take it to a machine shop for the work and have them drill it out and heli-coil / time-sert it while they are at it. Good luck!

Ahh, thank you. Kinda sucks, but it's understandable.
