It does take some patience...If I remember correctly I used a straight paper clip and one with a small "L" bent on the end as tools and was able to maneuver the piece(s) around so when I tipped the camera they were able to fall out.

I had a similar problem with my K-5.  Using a good magnifying glass check the 
bottom of the card slot for bits of plastic.  I found pieces in the slot that 
appeared to look like they were from a damaged SD card, although I could never 
identify which one.  I managed to fish the pieces out and the latch has worked 
properly since.

good call, unfortunately the contacts act like barbs to keep the piece in.

It’ll take some interesting work to remove
