Do you have any pictures?

not at this moment... the other two bolts are tight.. it doesn't seem to be leaking

just took the soloniod off and the bolt was right there and i put a pair of plyers on it and got it out

If its flush with the head and you have access to a welder you can take a nut and weld the inside of the nut to the stud. Then just turn it out with a wrench

do you really use a torque wrench for every bolt you tighten?

the same thing happen to me a few weeks ago. the problem was fixed with plyers. even though i had two bolts holding it, there was a little oil leak.
