hey guys

i just replaced my valve cover and as i was tightening one of the bolts, it broked. i dont' know the exact name for it. but is this thing replacable or i need a new motor just to get this thing back because i seems like it's connected to the motor.

so i really need some big help. i dont' want oil outside again. i took out the valve cover so i can replace the cam seal to prevent oil leak. and now this...



thx!

 

couple days ago i was doing the same thing and i lost one of the gramets that sit below the nut and i drove it around for about 3 days until i found it and put it on but no oil came out of the hole, i thought it would have but it did not. but i am not sure if that is fixable. i will let someone else say something but i think u will be safe to drive like that for a couple days, prob not a long time tho good luck

 

It is replacible. all you do is take off the valve cover and remove that stud with a 10 mill deep soket. and replace it with anotehr just like it. but no broken though
