Unless the holes in the injector tip are screwed up or the bolt holes in the head are fouled up all you need to do is remove the broken bolt.Then install the injector with new copper gaskets at the bottom and retighten the injector hold down bridge,making sure it is level and both bolts are torqued to the proper specs.

You can use a normal 1/4" ferrule, be sure to use a brass end tube insert also. Do not over tighten it.
