You may want to make a mark on the drill bit.
If you can take out a good stud and make note of how deep it went in or measure the depth once a good stud is removed. |

It is a 50mm M8 stud, but the majority of the stud sticks out above the head. The part that goes into the head is only about 10mm deep. I know this because I got lucky and one stud just came out. But then I also was unlucky because my first stud snapped at the level of the heat exchanger flange. I bought Christian's tool and it worked like a charm. No damage to the threads at all. Good luck!

When the drill bit breaks out of the steel stud, you definitely feel it. Just for reference, it is roughly 1/2"-5/8".
