I bought some 3d printed moss poles that I love. unfortunately I think they (PLVNTLY) went out of business so replacement parts aren't available My moss pole is snapped apart at the base and is pretty top heavy. my Mexicanum is outgrowing the pole. Should I try to separate it from the pole and start over? I'm kinda stuck on what I should do.

Chop and prop, start it over at the base of the pole if you want to keep using it. I have a mexicanum almost exactly this size that also reached the top. So that’s what I am going to do. For what’s it’s worth mine is doing well on a normal basic coir pole, if you don’t want to do moss anymore for some reason.
If you can temporarily secure it by hanging the pole or leaning and securing it, you could air layer a top cut and start over or you can try to remove the roots from the pole.
