Just keep fishing - surprised what one can snag - might try putting something over magnet so it doesn't stick to the housing and just the bolt and washer . 
 I have fished tools out of rear housing , parts out of dry clutch housings with magnets 
GOOD LUCK

I would think a lock washer in there would be pretty harmless. Darrel

They didnt put magnetic plugs in those engine clutch sumps Dave, but they used the same thread for the plug as on the powershift trans and most other drain plugs on the machines, so you can put a mag plug in if you want.
