I've got a suggestion, if you got a hole drilled completely thru the bolt, cut the bolt out with your cutting torch--I'll admit its probably not the best way, but it can be done, and if you're lucky and careful, you won't even hurt the threads in the block--and since its into the water jacket, slag can be cleaned right out. Just try and split the bolt in about 3 sections and then see if you can drive it down and into the water jacket. Its kind of a pain, but I've done this several times (on different things)and....knocking on wood....its worked for me everytime so far. If you don't feel comfortable doing it, have a welder stop by your shop and do it...still beats the other alternatives.
