I think the only way I would attempt to mend that break is to use a table top or small lathe, gently chuck each end of the inductor shaft, align them as perfectly as I can with the broken ends mating exactly as they should and then trying non-conductive epoxy. I really don't think a successful mend can be done on these pieces considering how close the break is to the ring.
