This is exactly what has happened to mine-how did you get the remaining 'body' of the screw out of the coolant tube please :beerchug::beerchug:

Just pick away at it slowly does it make sure that the last few bit's don't full into the coolant tube just keep on pumping the rad hose if any fall into metal tube.Then clear the internal thread . screw in new the one and top up colant and then bleed the system .
