So recently I noticed a burning smell coming from my engine when I was driving. I know I have a small oil leak so my brain automatically went to "Oh no, I'm about to overheat my engine", the fact that white smoke was coming from under my hood didn't help. So I got home, popped my hood and noticed immediately my spark plug cover was missing. I found it....melted to my heat shield and getting under it. I couldn't think of how this happened until I looked at my valve cover and noticed that some of the holes where the screws go had actually broken in half vertically so that there was only half a thread. I am wondering if there is any way to fix these, I do not have the pieces that broke off or the screws, or if I have to buy a new valve cover for this to work. I know I don't need the spark plug cover but I personally like it and eventually want to get a custom one so when I do I'd to have screw holes to mount it too. Any and all help is appreciated.
