Default Screw extractor broke off in hole, now what?

Hey all,

Broke an exhaust manifold bolt recently. Trying to remove with left hand drill and screw extractor. POS set from amazon, probably Chinese junk I don't know. The drilling went fine but then with very little force the extractor broke off in the hole. Tried drilling it out - not much progress. Any suggestions?

Would like to just take the manifold off and take to machine shop but I'm worried I might break off a bolt in the head and then I've got real issues.

Thanks for any thoughts!
