OK, think about this logically. That thing fell in there with a little hammering so it will come out one way or another.
Do you know someone that works at a muffler shop? They do that sort of thing all the time. The extraction would be a piece of cake with an acetylene cutting torch so long as you know how to direct the flame at the thinner steel and hit the oxygen trigger before the cast iron got too hot.
