yeah thats about your only options there, unless..... if you broke it tightening then ou can try making a notch in it with a wizwheel then using a flathead screw driver to back it out, but that rarely works

hmm
ez-outs seem alright, im just afraid that itll break. ive heard that they break easily... and if i were to go that route, id need to find a right-angle drill.
what about using a tig welder to build up the bolt and attaching an old socket to the weld?

can you tig? if so you could do that
thats a pretty big bolt so you can get a good sized ez out in it, usually the bigger the less likely they break
