Default Ocv snapped in the ocv housing

Here's the picture this is located right behind the cam under the cam cover. ( this isn't my picture or I wouldn't be here)
I gave up on trying to take what's left the oil control valve. I rather go get a complete new housing BUT! I don't know the steps to get to the part. There are no YouTube videos on it at all and I have till Friday to figure this out and it's stressing me out a lot. If you need a picture reference to this part im talking about there should be on below. Please I need any help I can get, I just need it to work I'm so close to getting my aristo swap ☹️

Well here's the blow up. Looks like a lot of work to get it out, including removing the sprockets themselves:

Drill a small hole in what's left of the plastic connecter. Thread in a basic pan head screw, and pull it out with a pair of vise grips. I had to do something similar on my GS400. The driver side cam sensor broke off. There was enough material to grab the pins with. I managed to just clamp vise grips on it and pull it straight out. There are many videos on YouTube for reference.
