I would try the small magnet stick trick again. Stick everywhere that you can. Use flashlight, etc. Maybe it's still around.
A small USB camera is super cheap these days. I would try it before even drop the pane, unless you don't have time to wait.

😭 I got it... it was in the pan.
Id never wish that on anybody... nobody should have to pull a oil pan on their back with basic tools. I guess it needed it tho. It was leaking pretty bad, there's oil everywhere and the gasket was flat.
Putting it back together I can already tell us going to be a nightmare... and or an all day job. (For me)

Im really glad you got it. I'm surprised it made it all the way to the pan.
A higher power might have figured that was the best way to get you to change your pan gasket. Hahaha
