Same happened to me about a month ago except not 1, 3 studs broke 1 was the one your referring to, bottom right. My best method was a die grinder matched with carbide bit. A drill and a bit did almost nothing. Good luck

any other suggestions??

Have you tried taking out your radiator for more room? Perhaps it will give you enough room.

Broken stud questions are all pretty-much the same answer:

Access will be the challenge to surmount. You might try a 90° drive attachment on a drill or Dremel.
