Default valve cover bolts and washers...missing?

i'm missing one of the washers that go onto my valve cover. here is the pic:



When my car is running, i can feel the air pushing out from that hole. Will this affect anything performance wise?

Thanks guys.

Please dont give people miss leading infomation if you dont know it for sure. Yes those are the stock bolts. All he needs to do it get that washer/gasket for it or else it will leak some oil.

maybe you can find them at a junkyard, because at the dealer they charge close to $5 per grommet or washer or whatever it is you wanna call it.
