Well, worst case?
The rocker arm face will crack, the valve stem will mushroom out and make it impossible to remove the valve if there ever becomes the need to.

It's a pretty simple job with basic tools.
Socket set.
Feeler gage.
New valve cover gasket.
and a couple cold beers.

If you run it too long with loose valves the possibility exists that the valve train could wear excessively and you could drop a valve. More expensive than adjusting valves
