Pull the valve cover to get a better look. If the broken plug is recessed, you can try to weld a new nut onto it for removal. Here is an applicable thread:

the sprk plug didnt brake in half just the part thats in red,i had been drivin the car like that for a while now and it runs fine,i dint even notice it as broke.just imagine the spark plug with out the grip thing the wrench doent grip anythin,
I doubt the "grip" thing broke. Unless you torqued it about 10Xs tighter then it was suppose to go, it didnt happen. Probably something with your wrench that isnt allowing it to seat flush.
Dogginator, exactly how do you get vice grips down in the spark plug hole?

Last resort pull the head and take it to a machine shop. If that part really broke and you have no grip at all then you gotta pull it anyways. Shouldn't be that tight to start with. Hand tight is tight enough.
