Help a rookie out guys.
The metal thing is called stinger

So are you able to pass the pipe cleaner through the stinger? As in, does the pipe cleaner come out from one end to the other? If so, then digging in there wouldn't help much. It is already clear most likely. If the pipe cleaner won't pass, then I would soak the stem in Oxi-clean and see if that breaks up whatever is blocking it.

If that doesn't work, remove the sucker. Some just pry off with a pair of pliers. Others, you have to hack saw off....being very careful not to cut off too much thread! Otherwise the pipe won't screw back in...don't worry, it sounds more scary than it is.

Hope that helps!
