You can JB weld it for now.......no worries.  If later on down the road you find a valve cover that's in bad shape but the breather is fine then just heat it up with a torch and it will just slip out, then you can replace yours.

Jon I do have a good valve cover if you're interested. I'm in Victoria. PM me if you're interested.
