(N63TU) turbo inlet mounting cracked

Accidentally put too much pressure on it and cracked the mounting point. It’s still attached but a lot looser than normal.

Am I okay to continue driving until new one comes in and I can replace it?

replace, you'll let unmetered and unfiltered air in. You'll reduce the engine life span, and eventually go into limp mode. Its about a $100 -/+ part
