Use a stick welder to weld a thick washer which is slightly smaller than the broken stud diameter to the broken stud. If broken off below flush, make circular passes on the stud until you get up to the washer surface. Then continue to circle weld onto the washer. At this point, weld a nut onto the washer around the outside of the nut. Pat yourself on the back for a couple of minutes while the heat penetrates down the bolt/stud. Use a wrench & rock the nut back & forth along with feeding penetrating oil to the threads. If the nut or washer breaks off, go again with the welding thing. Cover the block surface preferably with tin to protect it from welding berries. I use 6013 rod that is less than 1/8---usually 3/32. If the broken stud is above the block deck [never happens], your job is much easier.
