Default stripped bolt on valve cover

ok the front left bolt on the valve cover is stripped. the nut will not come off. its just spins and spins, wont get loose, wont get tight. i guess its either the bolt or the nut. I bought some materials to paint my valve cover tonight and when i tried to get it off, that last bolt was holding me back. How can i fix this? not that i think about it its probably the nut that is stripped. so whats the best way to get it off?

if your really careful try taking a cutoff wheel to chop the head off of the nut or try drilling it out either way will work not sure what your more comfortable with
