HELP! Sensor broke in block

Went a little crazy and over tightened this sensor and the head broke off leaving the threads in my block. How can I get this out without taking apart my block which I just finished rebuilding?

PLEASE HELP!!

I did that same thing a few years ago.

IIRC I was able to use a hammer and screwdriver and could pound on it at and angle to turn it out.


That sensor is good for nothing... breaks, British thread, and inaccurate.
