Is the question stupid because you know the answer and asked anyway?

The cover is there to protect the timing belt from foreign matter that could interfere with the movement of the belt. If you're comfortable with it not being installed, then yank it. If you're worried about things, leave it on.

Personally, I think I have less than 40% of the cover installed altogether. emoji

If you remove the timing belt cover, time as we know it will cease to exist and what is left of our world will plunge into total chaos!

....or a little road dirt or debris could damage your timing belt. Leave it on if it is already intact.
