It`s easy to pull the center bolt back to its original position using a telescopic magnet. If you do that, then you can use the extractor that uses the center bolt, if it snaps, you still have the blind hole bearing puller option. If you pull it out using the center bolt, I wouldn`t reuse the center bolt afterwards. If you use a blind hole bearing puller, the center bolt is reusable. For the blind hole puller probably you will need a spacer that sits perfectly onto the shaft and fits into the hole on the crankcase, that ensures that the pulling force will be centered.
