Why do you think you're screwed? You drove around with it broken for who knows how long and didn't notice it. Just because you've noticed it doesn't mean now its going to be a problem.

Just drive with the broken part until the new one arrives.

Learn it, Use it.

Also, about your problem, you'll be fine without it for a while. Don't worry so much.

Theres a tap you can buy at an automotive or hardware store thats made for situations like yours. Just go and asked them about a drill bit for stripped screws.
You can also try drilling it out.

don't worry, i had the same problem too. i just drenched the thing with wd-40 and liquid wrench. then i used a vise grip and kept trying to turn 'til it came out. i ended up butchering it to death though
