Yes, ownership can be hard. And I realize my comment didn't help you along. So let's try something else. Can you turn the oilp pump counter clockwise by hand? Slowly should be easy. I have a tool that will reach all the way down and won't come apart. If you use sockets and extensions, make sure you don't drop anything.

If the pin snapped again, I'd say either (or a combination):
-Too thick oil
-Hi volume pump
-Dirt clogging up pump
-Dist axle or dist gear has sharp edges that quickly cuts new shear pin
-Dist gear and cam gear doesn't match well

Hope this helps...
