    first get a magnetic pick up tool and fish for it down the cam chain area. if you are unsuccessful it may be magnetically attached to the flywheel. if so you'll need to remove the left case cover.

    as mentioned it may be on the flywheel...front or back. you may need to remove the flywheel. before doing this i would run a strong magnet all around the top of the head. these are very small and with a bit of oil can easily stick to any surface hidden out of view.
