I hear you. While doing the valve stem seals, this thin bendable magnetic pickup tool saved me hours of aggravation in finding lost stuff, especially the tiny valve stem keepers. Anything lost in the engine had to be found. That was my situation. The tool also helps in finding stuff lost in other parts of the engine compartment. You just wiggle it around the general area of the fallen part and wait to hear for the relieving "ting" sound.
