Minor Torch help! Plugged Oxy port.

[wildwire]

At class today, the students were cleaning the ports of the torches and a wire snapped off in the oxygen port! (cleaning wire from Praxair)

Now what? It won't come out and I think it is further in that it was before as we can't see it as well....We didn't light the torch since I wasn't sure what would happen.....

Any ideas? should I send the torch in to Nortel or is there something I can have done locally? or is it no big deal?

I have more classes this week and we need the torch!

Thanks for any insight!
