Can you use a magnet to drag it over to the oil drain hole?
Removing it should be okay, with the circlips wrench and the finger I'm able to pull it off, then I just need to force a bit to make it pass the hole. I've ordered a nice flexible magnet in case it breaks when I remove it.

You could use a professional mobile repairer such as the one on this link (I do not know this company so I can not comment upon the quality of their work) or a friendly local engineering company. Let us know the area in which you live and probably one of the other members local to you can recommend a company.
I live in Bracknell (berkshire), I've contacted
