Tensioner pulley insert
is corroded off into engine. How can I fix this? Went to replace it to notice it corroded off.

I predict you will need to remove the engine mount and raise or lower the engine as needed to have access to drill out the broken piece (that’s called a dowel) from the engine.

I presume this is a serpentine belt tensioner. Once the problem is fixed, might be a good idea to replace the tensioner proactively with a new one every 5 years or so. Those belt tensioners take a lot of abuse, should probably be replaced as a normally wearing part, routine scheduled maintenance.
