BIG problem- HELP ASAP

[canadian]

I was tightening some hose clamps up with a 1/4" drive 10mm deep socket when it fell of my mini ratchet and went down the plastic intercooler pipe right beside the air filter/housing.

How can i get this out? What will it damage if it is left in?

I need this out ASAP so I can start the car...

Try using an extendable magnet to reach down in there. Or take the pipe off from under the car

remove the intercooler pipe and get the socket out

Then maybe it's time for some new IC pipes. You shouldn't be afraid of them. :icon_razz

I need to stop whining lol. I tore the black plastic cover off (stupid thing) and had a better look at the hoses. They weren't hard like I thought, I was just being lazy.
I got it off and the socket fell out. All that work just for a stupid piece of metal. :nono:
