I've had them cleaned off twice by loose ball bearings from a dying 
release bearing. They'll ricochet around in there, but can't get out. 
Only option was to drop the trans at that point, I was working on a 200 
20v car, you might be able to remove the alum engine to trans brace and 
see if anything falls out.
