I would probably duct tape the old one in place just to keep the opening covered until you get a replacement.

If you plan on working on your bike & doing any maintenance procedures, you have to get a FSM, a ft. # & an inch # torque wrenches, & follow the torque specs in the manual for any bolts you tighten, or you're going to start stripping threads or breaking bolts on your bike
