Not sure about an actual coupler, sometimes it just pulls right out of the pump assembly, will have to look at a parts breakdown. Just looked, didn’t see a coupler. So is the shaft broken, or is the pump broken? Will be tough to find a decent used part at a reasonable price for sure. Just reread your post, seems like the motor shaft is broken off.
Like I say, that whole power trim/tilt assembly can be removed from the engine fairly easily, but you would have to remove the lower mounting nuts to get it off. I don’t think you will be able to get at that lower motor/pump housing reservoir bolt without removing the tilt cylinder.
