Default Broken Bolts!!!!

I recently replaced my cam seal and was putting everything back together. I managed to over torque 3 bolts and break them off. Two were on the camshaft cover plate. The final one isn't snapped completely in half but very close. How can I go about getting the broken part out of there? Please someone help me out. Thanks!!!

you should have stopped building the head yourself when you broke the first bolt. Then you would only have 1 broken bolt. Get an easyout.

damn, you really really wanted to make sure they wouldnt come loose, i guess. so, after the first one snapped, what motivated you to tighten the others down just as much???

I did the same, I broke 2 of the camshaft holder plate bolts from the exhaust cam, and while I was trying to extract them with a easy out, the easy out cracked my cam cradle, so I am punning my car with a piece missing from my exhaust cam cradle and 2 broken bolts
