To remove the pedal you may have to drill out the star cup washer as it is what is holding the pedal, preventing it from being pulled back off the axle.
Maybe you can find a small enough drill bit that will be able to get at the washer without damaging the plastic (nylon?) washer housing in the pedal.
Replacement internal tooth star cup washers should be available from hardware stores. Take the axle to make sure they are the correct fit.
