So as an update - I managed to retrieve the ring very painstakingly - took about 5 hours to do it but i used the inspection camera and some sticky putty. I had to drive the car around a few corners to get the ring in a good position the use all my patience to slowly retrieve it - thanks all for your help.

Well done! You have my permission to spend the $700 on a treat for yourself
