Get a new one.

It could have been saved until that horizontal cut was made. The cut caused burrs that will prevent removal.

For future reference when dealing with something like this:

Get a set of those, drill the required small pilot hole into the brass. Place the part in the oven and heat it to operating temperature. Remove nozzle.

Also, brass can't really be dissolved. It's why brass is used in many applications in corrosive environments. Also, it's why that nozzle is made from brass.

Just consider this an expensive lesson and move on.

Yep, screw extractor. Sometimes they work on set screws without having to drill.
