You might try diesel in a center hole the day before. When I worked around paving, any kind of solvent would ruin the new pavement. It essentially dissolves the asphalt binder Leaving the sand and gravel behind. I’m not sure if the effect is similar on older pavement.
You could also burn it out with a torch but have some water or fire extinguisher close by.

This. Get you a 4" PVC coupler, put it over were you want the hole. Then put a shite load of putty around the outside to seal. Pour in a cup of diesel. Diesel will get the asphalt soft to were you can dig it out.
