Ok here are the pics. As you can see the plug completely separated when I unscrewed it and it left the element stuck down in the head. I was able to drill the element out and tap it for the 8-31 stainless screw. Once the screw was in the end of the element I was able to tap it out using a slide hammer.

Nice work, I honestly never saw it done that way, most remove the injector and play with a magnet.
