Depending on the size and shape you might be able to get it out by using two smallish screwcrivers. Get the blade of the screwdriver under the bottom lip of the brass bush and lever against the side of the cavity. Use two from opposing sides. The other alternative (and probably less likely to do damage) is to bend the tip of the blade of an old screwdriver to about 45 degrees. Then slip the blade under the bush and rock from side to side, levering it up. You might need to file the end of the screw driver to make it thin enough to get under the bush. You'll need a cheap screwdriver as it won't be too hard (and thus brittle) to bend. Be careful as you do anything like this that you don't damage the walls of the pump and particularly the gasket face. Ian

Ive had a similar problem before and was able to rectify it by using a good pair of caliper pliars and a small amount of heat.

I was worried about the heat ruining whatever was below. In the end I drilled down the brass and it all came away. Steve
