Advice needed: Intake Head Stud

Hi,

I have removed my CIS in preparation for installing some ITBs.

I purchased a stud extractor tool and was removing the old intake studs in preparation for adding some longer studs to accomodate the spacers for the ITBs.

Unfortunately 1 of my intake studs broke off and a second one is quite stubborn and I'm afraid it will also break.

I was hoping for some advice on how I can remove the broken stud.

1. I purchased an induction tool that I used to remove the exhaust nuts when I installed my SSIs, is it ok if I try to heat up the broken intake stud with my induction tool? I have to be aware of melting the shroud so maybe that has to come off but what do you think?
2. The other option is to drill it and and use a reverse bit to pull out the stud.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks
