i wouldn't either. my 1.8T had a decent (i.e. not small, it was down one whole side of the cover and it weeped out) valve cover gasket leak for over a year and it was never an issue. just looks messy.

what does he mean by fried shit? IMO if you would have overheated you'd have a warped head and that would either lead to funky compression or a blown head gasket.
i'd worry about your VCG after you confirm your car didn't overheat.
