You need #7 Bolt A, head cover.

Need to take valve cover off again and replace that bolt.

About $12-$15 shipped from majestic honda. Local Dealer cost will be higher.

might need a tapout to counter drill the stud for removal.

Acually he just snapped the top part off, were the valve cover nut goes on. Under the valve cover he can remove the bolt with a socket(it has a nut made into the bolt almost in the middle of it), usually with a deep well socket to remove bolt, but not needed now cuz its shorter up top lol.

007 90011-PNA-003 BOLT A, HEAD COVER and its only 3.81 + shipping

you should be fine until it comes in. i thought it would leak out some oil while the engine was running but mine never did.
good luck man.

I hope you all are properly resealing the cover when you do these cover swaps... If you don't clean and reseat the gasket and use the goop in the unprotected spots you will all leak oil eventually...
