Oh Man! I don't know what to tell you. It probably won't be tough enough to cause a mechanical failure.....but there is a possibility that it could block an oil drainback port.

Try this, go down to the autoparts store and look for a retrieval tool that has three or four fingers that expand when you push the knob. They are spring loaded so that when you release the knob they will grab onto something. Without putting on my shoes to go look, I think that hole is big enough to allow access. If I remember correctly.

When you use the tool, make sure that you drop it straight down the hole. Don't twirl it around like a straw in a milkshake otherwise you might kick it to one side.

The PCV is located under the intake manifold.

Hope this helps.... I will let you know if I get any more brainstorms.
