The part with the blue handle attached is a mirror. You should use tweezers and try to pull the melted handle out. Clean the other optics, buy a new mirror, put that in and see if it your Glowforge works. If not, you may need to replace the whole printer head, which Glowforge can sell you for around $500. You’d contact them using the support link on any page of this site, or by emailing support@glowforge.com
