I have this really powerful magnet on a flexible stick I got at harbor freight. Before I got that I'd just give up but now with that tool I can get any tool or screw out of there with a little patience. it also has a light on it great tool must have for working on these motors..

Check around the motor mounts lost a wrench and socket in there and spent days finding them. Now it is my first place to look.
