Default threads on valve cover?

i just got my integra and im trying to figure out what is wrong with it this morning i went to pull the valve cover and 2 of the heads on the screws broke off since they are a lil rusty. i use rust eater and some lube. 2 are broekd off and i want to know if i can try to screw th rest off and hope they dont break or are the screws threaded into the valve cover too? is there threading inside the valve cover holes?
thanks.

nope no threads in on the valvle cover but sometimes those caps that are right under the bolts get jammed up real tight but none of that should effect you taking off the bolts just after you unbolt them all make sure you take off the caps before lifting up the valvle cover because there small and black so there easy to loose
be sure not to over tighten then when putting them back on or you will break the rest of the threads
