    Pics of the break might help.

            If the pin runs from ball socket to ball socket all the way through the hip piece, then it looks simple enough carve/fabricate one out of wood or resin.

              Hello, Thank you for your help.
              The problem is no way to open the main body part,as well as part of the pin is inside the crutch part.
              Any ideas how to do that or how to create it?

                ^^ Can you drill or dremel it out? If you can clear the pin path, you can work with it.
