did you say exhuast manifold stud? if so that would be the cyl. head and not the block? anywho, that happened to me with the stud nearest to the firewall. tried to take off the nut but took off half the stud with it. got a pro to do it. Looks to difficult for average Joe me.

So a typical machine type shop should be able to fix something like this then?

I got it out, its really easy to do. just get yourself a set of EZouts.

same here. just take your time drilling and dont try to rush. any ez-out or bolt extractor kit will work.
