D!%$# bearing snap ring disintegrated

Trying to put bearings in a 420 knuckle.

The bearing had more or less disintegrated, and the snap ring was seized in the groove.

I got one end started out with needle noses, but then the end broke off.

The ear on the other end is broken off too.

Any trick to this other than soaking it and using a punch and hammer? I tried that last night for awhile and this thing is STUCK.
