Check if the flapper up close to the top of filler neck where the pump nozzle penetrates is still there. If not it's probably blocking the neck further down at some point. I had this happen with a different vehicle & was just barely able to reach down with a needle nose pliers & remove the broken off flapper. If you can see the broken flapper but not reach it try to mash it over to one side so fuel can flow past it. It's most likely aluminum & shouldn't be a problem if you can get it so it does doesn't block the flow of fuel.
