Yeah, it's been a rough one. I worked on it a bit tonight and managed to grind the extractor out with the tungsten carbide dremel bit. It wasn't easy going as the bit wanted to keep slipping off the hardened steel extractor piece in the hole and dig away at the softer aluminum. I'm sure that if I had had the engine out of the car things would have gone differently. It's very hard bending over the engine and using mirrors to see what I'm doing. I started drilling a new hole which I will tap and use a different bolt. I need to go get better sharper bits as mine are pretty worn. I hope to have this wrapped up in the next few days. I don't get much time in the evenings - maybe an hour or two.
