How far down did it break off, if you have at least 1/4" left you can use my patented trick Take a nut thats slightly bigger than the shat, slip it over it, mig weld the ____ out of the inside of the nut to the shaft, remove with socket, ive gotten many a borken bolt out this way, but if it broke of flush with the head than only option is to machine it out.

Go to Toyota and get new studs. Take some vice grips and latch on to them and unscrew them from the block. I had one break about 1/4 inch from the block and that's what I did.
