Looks like it may be blocking vent. Is there a way to safely remove or just leave it be?

Doesn't look like the vent would be directly affected. Unless I've misinterpreted the photo, the vent should be far enough away from the yolk/umbilical cord spot. I feel like it would be best to leave it to fall off on its own and just keep an eye on the situation given that the chick is currently doing fine as-is.
