Default Will my intake leak if its missing 1 bolt?

I just realized that I am missing one of the intake manifold bolts and none of the dealers by me have any in stock until next week. I hear some loud *** ticking between 3-5k on decel on the same side thats missing a bolt so I am hoping thats the culprit. Is this my issue or will missing 1 bolt do nothing?
TIA

ticking....my first thought was header leak, but having one bolt gone "could" create a leak

go buy a bolt... probably costs 2.50 TOPS, but somehting like 1.50 sounds about right!
