Read the sticky on spark plugs at the top of this forum to see if this has been addressed. It seems I recall this was addressed in one of the many posts in that sticky. let's hope the head does not need to be pulled.

can you post a picture of what parts of that spark plug do you have?
if you have removed all the ceramic, then, you go to the backside of the page of the lisle tool and start there to pick just the metallic part.
if you still have ceramic, you have to go with the first and second page.
if you have the ceramic intact, use some pb blaster, and a long plier.
is your case any of these?

for what you describe, that is the normal lisle procedure, page one and two.
have you gone to the first part of pushing the ceramic using the pusher tool in the lisle tool? maybe you have to much ceramic? usually the ceramic breaks almost flush with the metallic tip, so, the pusher just push it like 1/2 inch or so. if you have more than that of the ceramic, you may have to broke it further using a long plier.

once you have pushed that 1/2 inch or so, the metallic part is expose, so the extractor part of the tool can grab on that metallic part. if you have to much ceramic probably the pusher is not pushing it far enough. have the pusher went all the way in or almost all? what part is not working in the procedure?

Its the back plug on the pass side.....of course.... Is it possible to push the porcelin down, or break it by tapping on it to get more room for the tool to bite???? I have not tried that but I am giving it thought
