I had one of my glow plugs break off while removing.

Thankfully it was the #1 plug so the intake manifold wasn't in the way.
I tried a standard twisted flute easy-out with no luck. Reading on here suggested that the straight flute easy-out worked better. No luck. Both types just stripped out. So I bought an extractor kit online and tried it out. Worked super easy and got that plug out.

And here is the kit that worked for me. Cheap too. Under $25 delivered.
