wow... not going to be easy at all... is it flush with the block? if so... time to pull the motor and you have to drill it out, i dont think you can get a drill in there, at that angle.

if there is a 1/4 inch sticking up.. try putting some vice grips on them and twisting it out.. dont know what your other options are..

how the hell did you break it off at the threads??
