we tried drilling it out... didnt work... maybe it was the bit we were using... do you have any specifics on how exactly i drill it out? or have you done anything like this before?

Easy out extractor. I think thats what its called. Its basically a reversed bit. You drill a hole in the middle of the bolt, and slowly screw in the easy out bit. Worked on my engine mount bolt when it broke off.
