no, i wouldnt drive without that in place. It goes in the bottom of the engine block, way below the headers...theres a small hole that the bottom presses into right near where the oil pan mounts to the block

you should be able to do it yourself relatively easily. Just put it back in the position it was and push down on it to get it started. After that it gets a little tougher. I made a custom "thing" to tap it in the rest of the way. Just use something that you can push or hit on to help get it seated.
