Sucked rag down manifold

I would pull it, you don't want that much in there. a small small piece would be different.

Pull it apart. Take the plenums off and hope you didn't hurt anything.

I did something very similar to that a long time ago on a GM V6. Ended up pulling the lower intake manifold. I just hit the key to crank it over while I had the motor apart. One little hit was all it took
