First, remove the header.
Then see if any of the bolt is sticking out of the block. If it is grab with vice grips and remove.
If its flush with the head, you might want to have a mechanic look at it.

before trying to remove it, soak it in pb blaster, a lot. whatever you do do not try an ez out. chances are it will just break off and create a bigger problem if you have a little bit of the bolt sticking out, and can fit 2 nuts on it, that would be ideal
