This is a piece where the screw gets screwed into, it came off when I was replacing the air filter.

My question is can I drive with only 1 of the 2 screws screwed in? also is this something that can be easily replaced for a few bucks? or do I have to like duct tape the cover?

 

theirs a good possibility that dirt/ debris will enter threw the opening when it isnt screwed down and could cause your engine a shorter life. id just duck tape it for the being and buy a new cover soon.

 

Thanks, hopefully it wont cost that much for the replacement..
