Unless it over heated the engine not much except the loss of some coolant, if your referring to to coolant reservoir. Just replenish the coolant and replace the cap.

Did the car over heat? if it did there a cause of a cooked / bad head gasket. If its just dripping a small amount of coolant rinse,clean dry the area try and see if a hose is leaking? loose clamp.. bad hose..I assume you don't have a pressure tester they can be rented or loaned from discount auto parts stores, with the system cool and under pressure you check easier. Find the leak before you service the thermostat. Find the leak before you bleed the system.
