I went over the bars and broke the part of my shifter(Shimano xt dyna-sys 11) that says what gear I am in. It broke off which is fine because I don’t really need it, but now the inside of the shifter is visible and open to the elements. Can I buy a replacement cover, and if not what is the best way to stop dirt and water getting in?

Probably not the best place to ask but it’s worth a shot

Have you been able to check with your bike shop yet? Some shops are good about having a lot of random parts around to hook ya up. At a minimum they can order whatever you need for ya ensuring you'll get what you need.
