I broke an exhaust manifold stud the other day. I think that it must have already been compromised somehow because it twisted off with almost no effort whatsoever. It is, of course, broken off within the head so there is no way to get a hold of it. I have read the 700/900 FAQ and all the horror stories and the not so horrible stories about using an extractor. What is everyones take on using an extractor to back the remaining part of the stud out? I can get to the stud fairly easily to drill it out with a nuematic drill (like a small Dremel) so that I can drill a hole for the extractor. The other 7 studs all came out pretty easy, so I don't think there is much seizing going on.

Everyone's thoughts and advice would be much appreciated.
