Take the LIM off and blow it out with an air compressor.

Get a high powered vac like a craftsman 5 hp shop vac and try to suck it out with that.Try to make a good seal around the engine and vac.That should get it out.

Good Luck

Is there really a danger in leaving it in there, especially if it's paper? The exhaust flow travels up to the EGR valve anyway, and it begins in the exhaust manifold area. I don't see where the piece could be ingested if it fell down in that hole.
