I believe there is a check valve in the disposal where the hose hooks up and it is stuck. Any suggestions on getting this valve unstuck.

I put my finger in the hole for the hose and it feels like there is a plug in there and i cant move it. If the plug was still in there what would be the easiest was to remove it.
