My fear was that it had broken and that I would need to get a new one made. However I pulled off the hub/drum and once the expander had been removed to my pleasure it had not broken at all. It had simply been pulled to far and the small plug CGB 1207 had gone past the small roller CGB 232 and the stud CGB 2306. The spring on the brake shoes then forced them all back and would not allow the parts to return to normal.
You can just see the roller inside the expander.
