Don't touch it for now, it may seal itself back. Coolant is corosive, with time, it will built coat of dry coolant and seal itself, i know, i have seen that lately in Mexico. If not, well, you have to seal it back. But it may create damage ealsewhere. Those 8 nuts are fully needed, one loose and the head may move. 50/50 chance i would say, who knows.
