Prime Tower went missing inside

Bambu Lab P1 Series
1

I printed a muilticolor print and had a small prime tower on the plate. Tried to pry it from the textured plate the next day, it popped, sprang and disappeared. I assume it fell into the slid in the back plate of the P1S, behind the Z-Axis .

So i am wondering:

a) should i try to get it out? I can’t see it, i can’t feel it… i have no idea what is behind that plate?
b) if i need to get in there, how? Do i need to disassemble the enclosure (I guess so)

If you turn the printer around, you can take off the back panel which allows access to that area. It likely won’t do any damage if you leave it there though

Opened up the back a bit and it just slid out at the bottom. It looked like completely removing the backplate is not that simple? there was still a noticable “resistance” after removing the screws…
