"One of my current thoughts is, take one of the ez outs that I specifically bought for this, heat it with a propane torch that I bought and bend part of it 90 degrees to form a screw extractor that would fit this purpose."

I can save you the trouble and frustration; you won't be able to bend an easy out. If you can't cut the tool, you might be able to fashion something of mild steel with sharp edges something like a spade wood bit, but in reverse-- short enough to handle behind there. You must have an inch or so if the sensor could be started in. It might even be loose enough where you could whittle something of wood that would jam inside the remnant. Heck, I'd start with an ice cream stick!
