IMS Stud snapped off while using LN Tool

I decided to do the IMS upgrade from LN engineering dual row bearing. I attempted to remove the bearing with the LN toolkit and the support stud snapped off inside the LN tool. Then I decided to use the "Easy Out" tool. After about 10 seconds of trying to get the "Easy out" tool inside the bearing, the copper wire broke off at the threaded piece. As you can see this is not going well. Should I try to call LN and get another "Easy Out" tool and take that chance or should I go ahead and buy a bearing puller?

Originally the LN tool did not budge the bearing at all and that is what caused the stud to snap. What's the chance the "Easy Out" tool or bearing puller will work? Any other way to get it out?
