You have access to the broken prop hub I take It? Use those channel locks to hold on to the prop hub not the aluminum hub because you will bend it or at least nick it up pretty badly.

Very good advice! Try holding the prop (or remnants) first, then if that does not work try the methods that prevent movement of the piston. Use of pliers on any part you don't wish to mar is usually a bad idea.
