Default T fitting broke in block

today as i was driving down the road, i started to smell oil from my engine bay, so i popped it and it was full of oil so i got it towed home. now while looking for the leak i found it was the joint for the t fitting for the oil pressure gauge.

the joint broke off in the block and am like oh ****. can anyone tell me how to get that out? i need my car ASAP

Left-Hand drill bit or an "Easy-Out" is your best bet.

yeah, i'm going with the easy out. might want to invest in an oil filter sandwich plate. they don't cost much, and most of the time they have 3 ports or so for different applications. that way there is no strain on the factory fitting hole.
