Which holes are they stuck in (I can't see in the pic, they all look good to me).

I would suggest drilling them out, yes. Definetly cover up that housing though, don't want any particles in there w/ those fins. Drill them out, and then put bolts/lockwashers/nuts in there to hold it together. Either that or stick a bolt in ther and locktite/epoxy them in and hope you never have take it apart again

take the exhaust housing off the turbo before you drill anything.

Try a sharp flat head screwdriver and hammer, worked for me on my stripped exhaust manifold nuts.
