I've been getting my valve cover ready for polishing by removing all the paint that some yahoo put on it before I bought it.  I noticed when I looked underneath and found that there is a broken piece that looks like a drain. Is this thing necessary? Will I need to get a different valve cover?

This is what I'm referring to:

I got this pic from someone on another forum. Mine is broken. Any help would be appreciated. I don't want to use my VC if it would be detrimental to my fully built SR.

Thanks
