Broken bolt blues



Hi all,
Well, did it this time.  Had to change the water pump in the 63, (383
engine) so while taking belts loose, (been on a long long time) I
didn't get a quarter turn on the bolt going thru the lower bracket on
the power steering pump when I heard the dreaded SNAP.  By the looks
of the part of the bolt that came out, it must go into a water jacket?
 Now the one opposite on the alternator bracket feels the same, and
I'm not real wild about the one just above it either, although it has
moved a bit.  Hate to have 3 to repair.  Any bright ideas on getting
these out in one piece ?  Sure took the fun out of this project. :-(
