You should be able to drive the pin out with plenty of heat and then some more and a very big hammer.  My tracks had been shortened by one link and they had removed the master pin link so I had to drive a pin out, it took a lot of big hits and heat.  You wil then have to use one link out of your old tracks to replace the damaged one.  Good luck. All the best, Sam
