Jeep Wrangler TJ Crankshaft Position Sensor Replacement

When removing the old CPS, I noticed the felt spacer was missing, with just a tiny piece of it still stuck to the sensor. I was able to put my finger into the hole and feel the old felt down in there, but am unable to get it out and in doing so, it fell to a position that I an no longer feel it. I tried to get a vacuum hose in there to suck it out, but with no success.

Will it just fall down into the oil pan where I can remove it from there? Not sure what it looks like in there or if I can get it out without taking the whole thing apart.
It will just lay in the bell housing, nothing to be concerned with.
 
I’m having trouble locating the cps. I have a 2003 with the 2.5l. I don’t see it anywhere on the bell housing. This is a picture on the driver side of the bell housing. Any help would be much appreciated.

Welcome to the forum.

If your Jeep is the 03' then you have the 2.4 that is totally different.

You can locate your service manual in the resource section for additional info.
