This has just happened to me. Since the way to kill him is with the hammer (well, the fastest way, anyhow) it's really aggravating if he happens to topple onto the mould or any other part of the contraption which is required to forge an item. Has anyone found a solution? I really don't want to do that battle all over again with only a hope that the exact same thing won't happen.
EDIT: I was able to use the lever and pop up the mould lid, then after about 1s or so it opened the insert dialog. After that I was able to craft my second piece. Still this is a bit janky and I do think his falling position should be adjusted when he dies (script him to walk into a non-interactive area before he falls to bits) because the messaging is misleading and confusing, making it seem like the mechanism is unusable ("No use, it's blocked" I believe is what my avatar kept saying) when in fact it's not. AND for some folks above he fell right on top of the lever and they can't use it at all.
I would suggest Larian adjust it so when he topples it's not on any usable area. Perhaps in the first full patch.
