Today I was looking around my engine and found that there was a exhaust manifold nut missing. So I looked closely and realized that half of the bolt was snapped off. What can I do to fix it? Is there replacement studs that I can use? If so how would I take off the broken half? Thanks

If you can't get it out by hammering it, you'll have to drill it out. When I say hammer, what you do is find a little edge were you can tap the screw in a counter clockwish motion. Drilling it out and retapping are a little bit of an ordeal. If you get so far as drilling it, make sure you tap it with the right size by taking out another bolt and matching the patterns.
