Default okay to drive without distributor leak cover?



its number 5 for those who not familar with the parts name. its the distributor leak cover. i had a stripped distributor bolt drilled out. but they broke my new rotor and cracked my leak cover in the process. atleast i got the drill out for free. lol. anyone know for sure if its ok to drive?

its $2 at the dealership but its on back order, have to wait 2-3 days before it arrives.
