If you can find a bit the same size as the outside of the nipple and a straight

bit by hand) drill out the broken stub, making sure that you do not drill
through the metering orifice. You can then trim the coupler to

As Rusty said, no, but if you can find the nipple that broke off:
find a drill bit that is snug in the nipple. note the size for
