Like the title states, I'm in the middle of cleaning my throttle body when I noticed there is a gap between the throttle body and the butterfly valve.

Is this normal? I can force it close but it doesn't stay like that.

When the engine is on it needs to breathe some air. It will open a little. just clean it and put it back together.

Yes sir!

I literally spent an hour cleaning everything and all it cost me was $3.65 for a new gasket.

Worth every penny!
