As Larry said, there is no magic solution. As was posted a while back: grab it with a vice grips (it will collapse, but that's ok) and pry it out with a crow bar. Not so easy with the engine installed. Its a thin wall tube so it comes apart "relatively" easily. I tapped mine and installed a SS barbed fitting.
