oil pressure sensor brass adapter snapped. help

Hi guys my brass t piece for my oil pressure just snapped and the some of the brass thread is still inside the actual engine oil hole. 
I have no idea how i'm going to get it out..... what would my options be if i cant get it out ? 
Has this happened to anyone before? any help or info would be greatly appreciated. 

its a sr20det engine. 200sx s15

It sounds like you aren't super confident, so one way to be sure would be to get a mobile thread repair guy to come out and fix it.

Otherwise, if part of the fitting is sitting outside the hole you may be able to get at it with vice grips or similar, or you can use an easy-out (carefully because it's just brass) if you have space to get at it. You may find the broken part is not that hard to back out because it will be a tapered fitting.
