You might be able to pull the pushrod out without pulling the clutch cover off. If you can find a powerful magnet (such as one from a defunct hard disk drive) and touch it to a steel rod or crosshead screwdriver to extend the field and poke that in the hole it may be enough to tug the remains of the pushrod out, especially if you have the bike on the sidestand.
It depends on how clean the break is... if the end is too bent it won't work, but with luck it'll save you a gasket and some time.
