I see we have a learning process before us...

Not the head gasket, merely the valve cover gasket. It's a rubber seal that fits around the valve cover...to keep oil from leaking out. A minor fix, although I see some bits attached to the top that would have to be removed.

Still, go get an oil cap and clean things up. Let us know what happens!
