Go to Site Settings->'Purge workflow data'. Select 'Custom Filter'. Select 'List Name is' and the name of the list. Add another filter that will help you find the item that was deleted by clicking 'Add filter'. Then hit the Query button. The query results appears at the bottom of the page. Make sure your only the items you want to purge appear. Click the purge button.

Thanks.. Can you confirm how can we automate this for the entire farm?

You might check out this blog post, it's something the farm admin needs to do regularly:

Hi,

when the list item status got completed, that item disappears from the list,

when i check purge data, i can see the item there,

But my client don't need that option, is there any option to bring it back to list.

Please guide me

This only deletes "completed, Cancelled or Erroded" workflows.  How then would you delete "running" workflows of deleted list items?

[dinafischer]

I found it!  You have to have access to "Central Administration" where you can change the "State" to include "Running."

Is there no way to Query based upon Item: Cannot find list item?  That would be the easiest way possible to clear these out.
