Can you show us a picture of the puller please? I think you might have been using the installer. Did it thread in? if so then that was the installer.

This video of how to remove broken bolts will help.

Have you applied any heat to the pulley boss to help expand it while applying pressure?

Go get a steering wheel puller, they are small and fairly strong, you will have to drill and tap two holes or the pulling bolts and clean up the centre boss bolt so the mandrel sits flush, apart from this you will have to drill a series of small holes and split the pulley off, I would have thought heat and pressure would have moved it.
