I think your best bet would be to get a telescoping magnet whose magnet will fit thru the hole and see if you can insert it thru the lock hole -- or if the frame is out thru that crack -- and feel around to find the rod. Harbor Freight and many parts stores should have something similar to these shown.

Unless something is really wrong with your car the rod is attached to the lock side pivot via a keeper so should still be attached and just flopped down. Once you can get it in position, should be able to grab with needlenose piers to release the lock.
