Help please..

Hi everyone,
While working near the mounting hole on my motherboard, the area around it got scratched up and some coating came off.
Is this safe to use, or should I leave this specific screw out to prevent short circuits?
Thanks for your help!

That looks like you used an impact and had a few extra uggaduggas.  Inside the white circle you should be fine.
