its probably a stripped/ broken off bolt from the other harness, get some vise-grips and try to turn it out

There's enough meat to get visegrips on that, lock them down super tight,then get bizzie....There's no reason for that to be so tight, that you have to break in the first place.. Maybe epoxy or some other crap holding it in. You could always try removing the one from the harness.
