Adding to the guide, a very small-bit pin vise would probably be safer than trying to stab heated metal rods into the broken sections.
Very narrow-gauge metal rods, if I recall correctly, can be found in hobby/art supply stores.
The other technique that is usually mentioned is to drill a small hole into the stub with the pin vise, insert a short length of metal reinforcement with a tiny amount of glue on it, wait for the glue to set, and then pull out the broken section. Then drill another hole into the other half and stick the metal rod into it with another tiny amount of glue.
Alternatively, after you get the broken bits out, if they're too mangled to fit together again, you might be able to contact GSC and have them send you a replacement joint...
Have you considered using a pin vice to drill the holes?

Many people use a pin vise. I use a drill with pin vise bits because I am a lazy man.
No it won't fuck it up as long as you don't fuck up and drill it wrong. It's pretty easy to do on plastic - bit tricky on pewter.
This!

Basically it's a tiny vise that'll hold small drill bits, allowing you to drill tiny holes. I mainly use it for drilling tiny holes to magnetize models and miniatures, but in this case it helped create the basis for my battle damage.
