Are there any adapters to fit tiny hoses or attachments (like crevice tools or something) to standard shop vacs?

I just discovered I need to **** a broken injector clip outta a 2V Triton spark plug hole (not my doing) and I can't be the first person to wish for something like this.

In the past I've cobbled together ****** setups with vac or fuel line and tape, but it's inefficient and I'm ready to buy something.

I could also build something on the lathe but FFS if I can save the time I'd prefer to do other things with my life right now....

Ok, now you might be onto something with this micro kit shown on that page!
https://www.homedepot.com/p/RIDGID-...:rt+dln:{562931}+qu:{ridgid+micro+vac+kit}:qu

Annoying thing is while it repeatedly says it works with 1-1/4 hoses I can't find the diameter of the attachments, ie could I slip 3/8" or 1/2" rubber hose over it for a flexible mini suction tube....

But for $15 worth a shot!!!!!

Thank you so much!

And still open to other suggestions

For clothes dryers,there's a "Lint Lizard,Hurricane",and I suppose you could add a smaller hose to it for tight spaces.

I assume it's a plastic clip? Can you see it? Is it big enough that you might be able to heat up the tip of a piece of steel rod and get the clip to partially melt to it?
