The file cover.jog is the cover for showing the cover in the Calibre GUI.

The file metadata.opf is a backup for the eBook's metadata. It's used as a backup in case the database gets messed up somehow.

You really do not want to delete these files. If you do, you love cover view and you lose the ability to restore should the database have something wrong with it.
