Pull the upper and get a good shop vac. Have a helper cover the other runners while you vacuum them out one at a time. Make sure you empty the vac first so you can see if you got all the pieces.

Applying pressurized air to the other intake port of the same rotor may be enough to blow the pieces up and out of the intake.

when you say runner you mean can suck it out of the intake? Mine snapped pretty clean but I don’t see it inside the fuel injector port anymore.
