Help! I scratched the bottom of my Xbox 360 motherboard.

I finished reapplying thermal paste and had trouble securing the x-bracket. I tried using a screwdriver to slide the stubborn side into place and my hand slipped, resulting in damage to the underside of the board. This was very upsetting, a very careless error. Can someone advise how bad is this damage? What are the two components that I destroyed? Lastly, can I repair it by doing trace repair and replacing the destroyed components?



Thank you!
