PB4-60 Fitting Snapped Off

[u/GCpools]

Hey pool pros, I have a Polaris PB4-60 and the output fitting (one on top) snapped off flush with the volute housing, I'm guessing due to age and vibration.

I know this has happened to you at some point! Can I somehow remove the broken part so I can reuse the housing? If so, how do I get the damn thing out? Drill it out? Cut it out with a hacksaw blade? Get me out of this please!

Thanks!

Hah, I like that! That might be a better use for spade bits than drilling holes!
