So I had a powder blue tang die some time ago and due to treating my tank w Ich attack it was too dark to see in the caves all the way and after the tank finally clearing completely I believe to have found the body which would not be easy to remove as far as moving rocks goes however it has been in there for well over two months, do I still need to worry ab ammonia spikes or will my clean up crew pick away at it? Thanks anyone who helps!

My vote: I'd remove it if you can. The cleanup crew may eventually clean it out completely... but I'd be concerned about not being able to control your parameters as long as it is in there. Plus (maybe personal preference) I don't like knowingly having dead fish, snails, crabs, etc in the tank if I can help it.

If it's in a difficult space, could you use long tweezers or something to that effect to get it out?
 
would matter if you could actually find it, after two months it has probably been long decayed/eaten imo
 
Find an old wire metal coat hanger

Untwist it and reform a primitive tool to reach into hard-to-reach places
