Mechanical Fuel Pump Arm Issue

Quite a regular

My Carter 2198 fuel pump lost the arm pin while driving and the arm is stuck inside the engine. What would be the best way to fish it out? From the oil pan or? I'm very handy but haven't taken the engine apart before. Has anyone had this happen? Any advice appreciated.

Magnet on a flexible handle would be my suggestion.
Could probably replace the pin with a clevis pin secured with a cotter pin.

tsherry I'm not sure which car you have but dropping the oil pan is a pain on a V8 car.

Thanks for your advice! I'll try a magnet wand first. If no luck, I'll drop the pan.

Reminder: two oil pan bolts are attached to the cover from below.
