Disaster?

So Im changing springs and I broke a rocker stud flush in the head... Whats my best bet to get it out, and what should I use on the remaining springs so it doesnt happen again?

drill a hole in the center of the broken bolt, and buy a set of easy outs from sears or your local parts store and take it out.

Use a left handed drill bit, you may not need an ease out.
