I can't think of anyway to remove this bolt, perhaps someone smarter than me has a solution?
Its on old outboard used around saltwater, the bolts were all well seized but with, heat, penetrating oil, shocks from a hammer and a lot of back and fort I managed to get the others out, however one snapped after only 5mm of movement.
The other side
I would normally drill it out, but its in a recessed slot, there is not straight access to the bolt in order to drill straight down its centre.
The scribe is pointing at where it insert into the block.
How much is still inside:
Wish it could have happened at the other side, I could have drilled down from the top.
