If it were me, I'd get it towed to a mechanic.

The link above takes you to Google Search Results.

I've watched 2 videos from FordTechMakuloco that are very detailed. The newest one I think is best (assume it's the newest one)....but take some time to watch the procedure.

Buy or rent the extractor tool and pop it out.

If I'm looking at the pictures right the OP still has the threads in the hole not just the sleeve. May be able to use the lisle tool to push down the porcelain and then use an EZ out to get the threaded portion out.

Following the procedure outlined for FordTechMakuloco in his videos, one will see how to push the porcelain deeper in.
His videos are older, so OP probably has the newest model of the Lisle tool. One of his videos touches on the improvements of the newer model vs. older model. If OP is renting/loaner the tool, could be good to ensure he has the newest available.
