how do you open the hood on a 1992 buick regal if the cable is broke
Use pliers and pull the cable...
TAke it to the body shop as they have to do it when a car is wrecked.
Use a set of pliers to pull the cable even if the plastic latch is broken...
Just replace the bent hinges along with the new hood. Salvage yard is a good source for these parts.
You can take the front grill off, with some T20 screws on the front of the car. You will see the hood release cable, and the mechanism that it attaches to. Just look at it, and you will be able to figure out how to open it from there.

I had a similar problem. On mine, the cable broke right inside the car...right at the lever. There was still plenty of cable sticking out so I just grab it with pliers and pull. If yours is broken in any other place, it will need to be replaced.
Remove the grill
Under the hood beside the battery.
