If its not broken to far down,weld something to it,and knock it loose.. Use good heat on the welder.
Lykke til!

There are plenty of ways to do it - I think one of the best ways is the put a nut on/over the broken stud (if it's at least flush) and mig weld it to the stud. After it cools, back it out...good luck!
