Stuck in the vent

[Brokenwing]

I messed up big time! Spent 2.5 hours trying to get the straw off a can of air out of the vent! Don’t ask how I did it lol! I cannot remove the pipe from the stove, everything is heavily siliconed. Will it be ok if I just let it in there?

Shop Vac?

Don,t see any reason not to leave it .
eventually it will melt.
It may get hot enough to catch fire, but it
is in a small enclosed pipe that, if the stove
is operating properly will not have any creosote to burn

Long needle nose pliers or forceps. If you leave it make sure the outside has a dab of RTV high temp silicone or more of that foil tape.

Leave it. Unless you think it could melt and permanently seal a cleanout.

It’s out, finally got it, thank you all for your suggestions! While trying to vac It out again it literally fell down into the tiny clean out and I was able to grab it! Now I got a fire going on this cool night!
