Default any ideas?

the day after installing the long tubes i can hear a rattling/sqeaking noise coming from the driver side header. i'm pretty sure a bolt fell in the collector when i was putting the header on. i tried getting it out with a piece of wire and can hear it moving, but i cannot get it out! very annoying to drive it like this. any techniques/tool i could try? any help is greatly appreciated!

the bolt is not inside the header. it is in the collector in between the four tubes.
