Is there any way to fix a broken off pedal such as gluing it or something? Is the only option replacement?

You could have it welded, but pedals are cheap, often cheaper than repairing them.

When maxim_tuner went tuning piano has found that as a result of hard transportation acts both of the pedals piano “Belarus” are damaged. Pedals were deformed hard contact about a stair . There was accepted decision to restore pedal . Originally maxim_tuner removed its. Then having stuck between two hard installed metallic sticks unbend a pedal necessary position. The whole operation on takedown and installation have occupied not less half hour http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugzivcOuqiQ

The OP needs to find someone who does casting repairs such as the patented Metalock or interlock process. This is the place in Vancouver that I use for pedal repairs.Here is some information on this page about cast repairs. casting repairs

Thanks! That is exactly what I thought- either weld or replace. I was asking for a friend. My piano's pedals are all intact.
