I am assuming you mean "rocker cover" gasket. All you have to do is simply take the cover off, peal away all the old gasket, clean both gasket surfaces, and then use a small amount of RTV silicone in the corners of rubber gaskets (NOT CORK GASKETS) and then re-install the new gasket in place of the old one.
Rocker gasket? If you are referring to a valve cover gasket, no it will do no damage as long as you keep the oil level full.

Not necessarily. Check the rocker gasket.
A leaking rocker cover gasket and a leaking head gasket are two separate issues that can occur independently of each other. The rocker cover gasket is responsible for sealing the rocker cover to prevent oil leaks, while the head gasket seals the cylinder head to the engine block. However, it is possible for oil leaks from the rocker cover to drip down and give the appearance of a head gasket leak. It is important to have a professional mechanic inspect the vehicle to accurately diagnose the source of the oil leak.
