Default my thread broke off of my engine cover!

After checking my spark plugs, I was screwing the grey piece that covers my engine cover and the bottom left thread broke off. Now the bottom right thread is sticking out more. Will this have negative effects on my engine?

the grey piece that covers my engine cover
is the "grey piece that covers your engine cover" you speak of the spark plug cover?
