I wonder if you could pull that ball out of there with a magnet, and then get a screw extractor in there to get the broken bleeder out? I think the ball must only be held in place by the spring that is poking out of the other bit (in your hand in the photo), so the ball should just come right out. Just a thought; I could be totally wrong.
I would hope that I can't pull the ball out with a magnet. I think that hydraulic pressure is on the other side of the ball. This GIF from the Speed Bleeder home page sort of shows how it works.
