Default Please help!!!

I'm sick to my stomach on what just happened. I was installing the Needswings intake manifolds with the stainless steel bolts. Apparently one of them got cross threaded. It was about 3/4 of the way in when I realized it was just way too hard so I started to back it out and the bolt snapped off. I took the manifold off and about an 1/8" of the bolt is sticking out.

Can anyone tell me what to do now? With how tight it was I doubt an easy out would do any good. Even if I do get it out I suppose the threads are probably ruined. Any advice would be much appreciated. I'm at a loss.
