You must have found an antique if you have one still made out of brass.

Just chisel the broken piece out of the head. The threads in the head are 1/2" National Pipe Thread so they are tapered. If you have to you can cut PART WAY through the old bushing to get it to break out easier. Do not cut into the threads or you will not be able to seal the new bushing in the head.

A bigger problem may be, if you are reusing the old gauge, to find a replacement bushing. There are a couple of different styles and you need one to match the old gauge.
