i broke off the bleeder screw on rear brakes one year, had to drill a small hole in center of exposed broken bolt and then back it out with a reversed thread tap,,pretty simple job,,,not sure what its really called,,but hope u can fit a drill to where u can do the drilling ,might have to remove the radiator,,,good luck.......

Hopefully on the good side it wont be very tight. I know they make easy outs for stuff like that. Its a pain in the butt but good luck mate.
