Default Removing Front Oil Galley Plug

I just got my block back from the machine shop and I want to clean the oil passages thoroughly before getting to assembly. I've got all the plugs removed except for the front galley plug (not the barbell restrictor). Anyone have any tips on how to remove this?

Use a metal rod longer than the length of the block, insert it into the back of the block where the barbell was, and pop the front plug out.
