A few days ago I went to parts source to pick up a serpentine belt and when I got out the old girl wouldnt start again. I've read CPS on these forums many times so I took it home a took the CPS off from underneath with a long extension. one of the bolts didnt come out with the socket. Since there was no way I was going to be putting the CPS back on from underneath and I already needed to replace my gasket I removed the manifold. Thats when I realized the hole in the top of the bel housing where the bolt disappeared to. Ive been fishing with a magnet and was just wanting suggestions on my best plan of action?

Remove the inspection cover from the bottom and fish for it down there?

X2^ if you're lucky it will be in plain sight right behind the flywheel. You could also take the starter off to gain another access hole
