Shop vac, or get a flexible pickup tool with a magnet for an end.

Yep use a magnet, just curious HOW DID YOU BREAK A SD TIP OFF WITH A PISTON? did you crank your engine? if so you probably ruined the spark hole screw pattern....

Just a guess, but he prob stuck the screw driver down the hole and turned the engine over and it got jammed. I have seen it happen before and it was not good.
