Today we had a tool changer error. unfortunately the 3R Measuring probe was in the holder.My mistake, I switch to manual and had the machine retract the tool changer.
the tool fell into the tank snapping of the end. The end easily screws off .I have ordered a new probe end from http://www.belmont4edm.com/

I hope the probe housing is not damaged. Is there a method to re-calibrate these tools with out sending back to 3R ?

Thanks for any advice

It's a Renishaw probe, you should be able to contact their customer service for a procedure to calibrate yours. Get the part number off the body, or from System 3R if it's not readily visible.
