The bolt can be replace you are going to have to TAP it out...When you say a piece fell where the oil drains where exactly do you mean? internal of the motor???

You need to get that piece out. Drain your oil and see if its there. If not pour oil into the valve assembly area with your oil drain bolt out and pray it comes out.

Yes it went in the engine and the bolt didn't brake where it screws in.... Like when you put the valve cover and your puting the bolts the one on the bottom left corner broke and I pulled out the bolt it was fine but the inside was ducked

How did you manage to get the piece out?

Is it a piece on the Valve cover itself or the engine?
