Dropped small cylinder heat bolts

Hello, I am hoping that someone has a solution for me on this one. I was re-installing my cylinder head on a 2013 GTX 260. I dropped one of the small cylinder head bolts down into the area below the timing chain. Does anybody know how to retrieve it without pulling the PTO housing? The bolt is not magnetic and I haven't been able to grab it with a flexible claw. I tried dropping a borescope down into the area but can't see anything. I'm not sure how to find the bolt and pull it back out. Thanks much in advance for any suggestions.
 
Only thing I have seen on the subject is from a 3 feet deep video. Something like don’t drop the bolt or you will be a very unhappy camper. They stuff all kinds of rags and paper below the bolt holes just in case. Gave me the impression that it needs to come apart.
