it keeps dust and water from entering left cover..
this is one place I would use non hardening gasket sealer to span the gaps where gasket is torn..
At the bottom of the left case cover there is a weep/drain channel that is open to atmosphere at all times..

some may use silicone, can't stand the stuff myself as I have used Permatex form a gasket for decades.

immediately assemble, or not, if you wait it will form a thin skin after time.
a small dab spread with finger will be all you need to avoid excessive squeeze out.
