The beer and patience can't hurt any.
I had a J-type that had two studs from the flange oxidized to aluminum housing. At least that's how I remember it.
Tried a little bit of heat, PB Blaster, Coca Cola etc. but nothing loosened it. Eventually was able to split them apart just enough to get a hacksaw blade between and cut the stud. Big pain in the ...
It did score the case slightly, but not enough to make it leak (thankfully.)
Don't know if this would help any, but misery loves company!
