Not that I've ever seen that happen.
This is exactly what happened. I tried punching it gently just to break the seal hopeing I could then pull it out. Carnutzzz made me do it!

My friendly neighborhood mechanic was able to fish it out by snagging it with two hefty gauge puller hooks with T-handles. After snagging it and bringing back to the opening, a few sharp yanks and it was out. Nothing like a successful outcome when on the brink of disaster.
