This won't work on a steel chainstay.
Turn the chainstay vertical and rap the sides with the heel of your hand, If that doesn't dislodge it, tap the frame down against a hard but padded surface like a carpeted floor, or the top of your show.
BTW- don't go crazy trying. If you don't hear it and tapping doesn't move it, there's a good chance it's not where you think it is, and fell out already without you hearing it.
