It's no big deal

Oasis ripped off T-Rex's Get It On for Cigarettes & Alcohol
The Jam ripped off The Supremes You Cant Hurry Love for Town Called Malice.

It happens all the time.
The only thing that bothers me about Led Zep's plagiarisms is all the old blues standards they called their own. Ripping off loads of blues artists who probably spent their entire careers not getting their due.
