Did you try soldering the leg back on or soldering a small wire where the leg broke off?
A small capacitor broke off my CPU board so I soldered two small wires on capacitor then soldered the wires to the cpu board. It worked for me.
It is much easier with a ceramic capacitor or a resitor to do this, but with a transistor having three legs he would need to know exactly which connections go to emitter, base, and collector.
