That is a steel bolt going into an aluminum housing. that is some serious torque to snap it off, wonder what damage was done to the threads on the housing?

I agree with getting a bolt from PNP. I think the whole filter housing is around $15, but you pull it. If you do replace the housing make sure in the part#, the 2 #`s from the last is "02". don`t need the crush washer under the center bolt head, just the 2 "O" rings.
