Default Cracked a bolt!!!

Ok im freaking out about this right now so i need to know if anybody can help me. I was changing my fuel injectors today and when retightening my fuel rail bolts (connect to the intake mani) the bolt cracked and is now lodged in the middle section. Does anybody know a way to get the bolt out without ruining my s2 intake mani? Or does this bolt being broken even matter?

Use a bolt extractor if possible, if not, you can weld on a nut and back it out, i did that this weekend on a power steering pump bolt and an oil pump bolt.

where would i be able to get a bolt extractor and how much would it cost? I might be able to get my hands on a welder but it would take a while to get ahold of one of my friends with one.

just use a center punch before you start drilling to make sure your hole will be centered. Good luck
