Did I break this?

I was trying to remove the backplate and my hand slipped and I accidentally scratched it with the screwdriver. I think there used to be a transistor here. Is this fixable? I have basic soldering skills.
Edit: This is the back of the CPU socket so I'm kind of freaking out.
There's a good chance it's probably fine as is. You ripped off a decoupling cap (makes the power smoother). I wouldn't be surprised if there are enough other decoupling caps near enough by to make up for the missing one.
