I would bet that it's your throw out bearing!
You lose!
I have repaired that stud with JD Weld. Held for many miles.

Sure would be easier than trying to pull that hub off. I'm always a little nervous about JB welding parts that deep in the bike though.
Also would like to know what caused it to break. Unless I change something I would think its likely to just break again.

I was just about to list my clutch from my 1988 FLHS in the for sale section. Replaced with a later model when I went to a Baker Trans. It's got a new style reinforced hub, with the Zippers press on rear reinforcement for the back side too, SE plates and new bearing. Let me know if your interested. Mike

If you get the clutch hub puller, the job will be pretty easy.
You want a clutch hub with steel stand-offs: https://www.ebay.com/itm/V-FACTOR-73....c100005.m1851
You'll also need a clutch shell bearing, because it will more than likely be messed up when you press it out: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Eastern-Clu....c100005.m1851
