How do I get the position sensor magnet out of the sump well
What is your question?
Got truck for free because the head gasket was blown. Fixed it with sealant and new fan. Clutch went out and had to pull transmission. Exhaust pipes had to be let down. One bolt striped . ground it off while doing so I got one of the crankshaft position sensor wire's too. Tried to remove sensor but the block got so hot when head gasket blew it turned the plastic sensor to a hard brittle piece of crap. Got the plastic out but magnet fell into the oilpan. Now what?
What makes this problem better or worse?
Cut into side of oilpan and fish it out and j b weld cutout back?

You lost me at "fixed with sealant".
You need a major engine repair and done properly. What you're doing isn't going to work, unfortunately. This isn't 1965 with cast iron engine components and no engine control modules, sensors or controls. I'm sorry.
