Broken screw on heat guard!

[AZ.45]

Ok the other night I was attempting to remove some rust from the exaust pipe. So I needed to remove the rusted screw on the heat guard on my 200x. I sprayed it with some wd-40 and let it sit for a couple of minutes. I then went at it with a pair of vise-grips and the screw snapped!!!:mad: The top of the screw is what came off, the other half is still stuck in the pipe! Any ideas on how to get this out?:confused:

normally, i would take a nut, place it over the remaining bolt and weld it to the bolt. the heat helps to loosen it and now you have a way to turn it out

Not that next time helps does anything now but penetrating oil soaks in a lot if you spray it on a few times and let it sit for a day or more. I don't know if other guys here in the rust belt agree but I think PB Blaster works way better than WD-40 for freeing stuck bolts.

With the bolt you got in the exhaust, soak it with PB Blaster, drill it, torch it and EZ out it.
