Heat it with a torch first then smack it out from rear to front. if it collapses or shears take a socket the same diameter as the hole it is seated in and go for it. It WILL come out.

I got it, but now i ran into another problem. I broke one of those red vacuum hose hooking everything back up. Is online the only place to buy those?

Any parts store should have the vacuum hose...

For future reference, use a socket just big enough to fit over the end of the nipple and whack on that. Keeps the nipple from flaring out and allows you to slide it thru the hole instead of trying to cut it.
