Inside valve Cover slightly bent

I accidentally bent slightly the inside of my valve Cover. It got bent due to me breaking the PCV valve and me getting out the PCV valve. Any who the inside has a non replaceable gasket which now sealed right.

the top right is the part that is bent. I already bent it back into shape but when I pour water over the edge it leaks water. The other parts do not leak. Could I use JB weld for this?

Don't worry about it. Thats just a baffle to help keep oil in the engine and out of the PCV system. Look at the two big holes (not the sparkplug tube holes), they are going to pass more gass that your leaky corner.
By the way, your video is private, can't watch.

Thanks for the info. I'll leave it as is.

PS: I just changed the permissions in the video. It should now be viewable.
