I dropped a 4" wire inside the exhaust pipe.

I was lubing the chain when my 3yo son grabbed the chain lube can lid and threw it inside the pipe. Look dad! I put it inside! he said. all happy. Damn!

I made a wire hook to pull it out. I got the plastic lid out but I dropped the wire.
Then I grabbed my telescopic magnet to pull out the wire, but didn't notice the magnet had caught a small washer. Yes, you guessed it. The washer ended up inside the pipe as well. Both things seem to be way down there now and I can't take them out.

I guess I'll have to take the slip on apart and try from there.
