Installed a catch can with a custom mount and it went really well... Until I dropped one of the OEM hose clips and I can't find it. Anyone have any thoughts on retrieving it?? I think it dropped right behind where the new hose connects (red arrow in pics).

I have a 15 foot endoscope camera and fished around with no luck. Just worried it may get snagged in a moving part.

Thanks for any tips!

Other than hitting the under cover and hoping it falls out, maybe jack the front up and look around from under it?

Thanks for the tip. Thinking this'll be the best route.

Since it was basically the backside, there shouldn't be much moving, not mention that it sounded like it hit something softer and non metallic (hopefully the bottom cover), and I needed to go to work. Decided to play start it, hood closed, and no problems so that's great. Let it idle for a few minutes and looked under the hood, couldn't hear any rattling or see any evidence of it.
