Problem with caliper

I thought I was almost done with my disc brake conversion, but have run in to a problem. The bleeder screw on one of the calipers was apparently cross threaded, so it snapped off. I thought it was coming out, but I can tell that the tapped insert backed out a thread or two before it snapped. Can this caliper be salvaged? Or, do I just need to get a new one? Thanks!
