If the plug only snapped off outside the head you can get it out without any damage. You just need to be careful when trying to remove it so you don't damage the threads in the head. I've removed a few broken plugs in my day. I've actually Heli-Coiled a few plugs and they held fine. But they also weren't boosted either. Just take it to someone that has experience with this kind of thing.
