Hi Doug,

(1) The best way to remove a stuck bolt depends on what you find once you get it on your bench. There are many options depending on what caused it to break and how much you have above the surface, if any. Just don't break an extractor in it; that is the worst you can do.

(2) You could do either. Just a little layer of rust is gluing the two together at the very worst.
