Default 92 integra broken tensioner bolt in the block! Help!!

I have a 92 Integra with a tension pulley bolt for the timing belt that broke. When removing the bolt it very tight but was slowly caming out. While backing the bolt out the bolt snapped with a quarter of the thread stuck in the block.

Is there any way of removing this bolt without having to pull the motor out? Please help!! All that is left is exposing is roughly the thickness of a dime.

Thanks in Advance for your responses!

Try taking it to a shop, or if there is any threads that you can grab with some needle nose vice grips, try to spin it out.

Probably not enough room there to use a bolt extractor bit...spray the area with PB Blaster and let it sit for two hours then if you can grab the tip with locking pliers try twisting it out.

Did you try using a torch to heat the area pretty good then trying to twist it out?
