Oh bu##er

I have a slight problem!!!!
Taken olive for a tune up cos she was running rubbish.
Turns out that one of the tappet screws has come out inside the rocker cover.
In the bottom of the cover there is a shim and the nut, looks like the screws is in one of the pushrod tubes.
Questions
What's the best way to remove the screw from the pushros tube or should I just replace the tube. How easy is it to do that?
How do I check the pushrods are ok.
Anything else I have missed?...

Thanks
James

Needs to come out realy.
To take the push rod tube off you need to remove the cylinder head.
Or you could try one of those magnet on a stick jobbies (like a magnet on a small telescopic ariel).
A good plan B, a fine pi3ce of bent wire you can fish it out with?
Rocker shaft removed 1st.

As Rich said, rockers off, telescopic magnet to the ready as you pull the pushrod up and out should get it.
