While reinstalling my power supply in the bottom of my case somehow it looks like the top of the PSU barely rubbed against the grey plastic SATA connector on SSD and cleanly broke off the outer part. Part of it is still there, no pins bent, and SATA cable firmly locks in place.

I am just guessing I did it because I heard a light scraping sound as I gently slid the PSU in out a little to get it in place. I found a small grey plastic piece on the floor that might have been it, but now it's missing. I searched all over the place. Anyway just checking to see if safe to power up PC. I'll try to include a photo.
 
Thank you so much!!! Was really mad at myself, and then I could not find the little grey piece again. Probably not a good idea to try and glue anyway.
