hey all!
So we had our first burn of the season last night and I broke the handle off the door latch. the latch is pressed in. do i simply try to psh the pin out with a hammer and a screw driver? the insert has an enamel coating so I am a little worried about damaging it.

I have done a bunch of searches looking for a youtube video of how to do this but I am coming up empty.

TIA
