As a fix for the one you have, a left handed drill bit normally does the trick, heat the caliper up oven/torch first. If you do get a new caliper ill buy the one you have off you if you want to sell it on.

Hi.
Snapped easy outs can be removed with the correct tooling though not easy. I've done it on aircraft fasteners where there's no other option for disassembly.

Easy outs are never a quick fix I find they snap too easily
