Dave:
I had the same problem. My axle broke like yours and was cone shaped at the end. The piece that was in the diff was split along the length of the splines. Each spline was a separate piece. To get it out I drilled into the center of the axle shaft piece in the diff. I was going to use and easy out or thread a bolt in. It was down in there a ways and could not get a welder to it. As I was drilling, I got in about 1/4" and pieces started to come out as the drill bit grabbed hold of them. I cleaned things out really well and there have been no problems since.
