1983 yahama xs400 clutch push rod bearing issues

[lovnmyboys2]

Hello, I have an 83 yahama xs400 seca. I recently changed the clutch cable on my bike and when I put it back together I was having issues with it shifting without touching the clutch but not engaging to ride. I took it apart again and noticed the ball bearing that is supposed to sit on the end of the push rod has somehow been pushed into the assembly and not sitting on the surface to be able to push the rod. How do I get the ball out of there? Do I need to replace the entire clutch release assembly or can I just take it apart and get the ball bearing out of there? I should add that I just recently bought this bike. I am brand new to the bike world and self taught
