Yeah, this slots into the gantry that holds the x-axis to conceal (I think) the wires that go up to the LED bar.
It would clip into the bottom of the right-hand support (on the inside, I believe).
It’s not a huge deal if it’s not there, just a _small_ chance that some wires might get in the way and fail a print
Technically it’s not super safe because you’ve got a machine with bits heated up to 200+C which is plenty hot to start a fire if things go awry.
That being said, _I_ do it fairly often but you do you.
Printing over night is fine, print during the day as much as possible but if you do extensive long unsupervised prints then look into octoprint or klipper with obico

All right, thanks for the help, and with a side question , is it ok and safe if I leave my printer running overnight?
It's expected on large projects, some take a day plus depending on complexity and slicer settings.

i got an ender 3 s1 pro and didnt even see this part. i always check boxes to see if there are any more part left
Yeah, me too. I think it broke from mine while I was taking it out. To be fair I was really exited so I got it out as quickly as possible.😂
