Default SCREW FELL INTO ENGINE!!!!!

Today I was working on my blaster. I had the reed cage out and one of the intake manifold bolts fell down into my motor. When it happened the piston was at the top of the cylinder so it didnt stop the bolt from falling down to the bottom of the cylinder and now i think its around the crank somewhere. It is caught in between something because i pushed down on the kickstarter lightly with my hand to see if the piston would still move and the piston went down and the halfway back up and then got stuck in the middle of the cylinder but i can still push the piston to the bottom of the cylinder with my hand. Do I have to take the whole egine apart to try to find the bolt or is there some easier way i can do it like using a magnet or something? any help is greatly appreciated.

if its under the piston than you are probably going to need to take the top end apart atleast...

thw entire top end needs to come off n then u might have to flip the motor upside down to get it out
a good days work for a normal personrmeber to torque the bolts down when rebuilding it
