OPT expired while waiting on OPT STEM. Am I good?

I applied 3 months before opt expiration, and I got the receipt back. Case status still just says "we received your Form I-765..." but my actual OPT expires in two. Is this automatically covered by the cap gap? And is there a limit on that?

Also, once my stem is approved is the start date gonna be the date it's accepted or the day my initial OPT ends?

Please help I'm so nervous
