There is no wire thin enough to go in that hole.... At least none strong
enough to push thru it.....

On regular propane torches I put the orifice in backwards and open the
gas for a few seconds; don't ignite it. It back blows out whatever crud
is in there. Then turn it around and it is usually good to go. I don't
know what you mean by "small" propane torch, but this works on the
regular hand held torches. BTW, you might try back blowing it with
compressed air, but you really have to hold on to it.
