I dropped the pick up tube in my oil pan and i cant get that bitch out with anything.. ive tried the magnet trick with a string.. no luck after 2 hours of trying. So iw as wonderin if it would hurt anything if the bolt just stayed in there?

BUAHAHAHAHAAH....only if you dont mind a new motor... pull the pan man...i assume you mean the bolt not the entire tube.

Do not leave it in there.
The crank will wip it up catch it & cause havoc.
Get a bendable magnet & try, try again, or remove the pan.

Craftsman has a nice magnet wand that is very flexible. If that doesnt work ....buy work space... Lower the oil pan bolts 1/2 inch if necessaey (more in front than back works good). I was a victim, but took less than an hour. BTW, you really dont want that in your pan . PS , why did they choose to use the rear of the two bolt holes in the pick-up anyway...LS6's use the "easier" hole if I remember right.
