V6 small breather hole blocked. How best to clear?

As above. Failed to push wire through it. Maintenance guide states use 1.5mm drill; sounds good advice, not sure how to hold it. Pin vice?

Use the copper earth wire from a bit of 2.5mmT/E cable...cut it to about 200mm in length and simple flexy bit of rigid "pokey tool" :y

Don't forget to attach a Vauxhall badge to the non pokey end before you use it or TEOTWAKI will occur!
