I'm not all that familiar with the Westerbecke but on some engines you can unscrew the sump tube giving a larger access hole to the sump. This may (wishfull thinking perhaps but worth a shot) enable you to fish out the excess. If that doesn't work methinks you are in bad shape. The only other way to get at that excess tubing will be to drop the sump and that is not something that has any positives attached to it. I know that with my engine (Bukh) I'd have to lift out the engine itself to drop the sump.
Good Luck, I fear you are going to need it.
