Steinbach,
Hey guys i was just gettin my motor back the other day and i over torqued the middle bolt that holds the fuel rail on and snapped it off in the cylinder head. I fastened it with the 2 outside bolts, and it seals on pretty good. Does anyone know if i can run it with the 2 end bolts and not be leaking fuel pressure? or should i do what i can to drill it out and try to get it out?
 
Those bolts are the only things keeping the injectors in their boss's. You MAY be ok with the two outside bolts, but I would recommend you repair it correctly.
 
k, so i already drilled a hole, and tried to drive a torx in there to turn them out and it didnt work. Im going to go get a bolt extractor this week. How deep of a hole should i drill?
