I dropped a small nut into the intake hole of my CA77. Any ideas?

Nut in intake

A strong magnet might work if it didn't get past an open valve. Look in the hole with a mirror to see where it is.

So I took a fellow forum persons advice and attached a 10" piece of fuel line to my shop vac. The nut came right out first try . Thank you!
