Default manifold studs broke what should I do?

I was taking off the pipes that connect to the factory manifolds and three of the six studs broke off on the exhaust manifolds. I was trying to install A ORY that bolts to factory manifolds. What should I do now? Are the factory manifolds hard to replace, because I still want on put on the y pipe.

I'd start by pulling the manifold off. If there is enough studd left to grab onto with some vice grips I'd run a torch on it for a few and try the vice grips. If no stud left protruding and your not comfortable drilling them out take to a garage/shop and they'll do it for you.
