Do you have any pics? Are you referring to the bolts and nuts that secure the air intake chamber over the intake manifold? I recall that there are 6 bolts and 2 nuts which hold the air intake chamber to the intake manifold.

How much of the stud is remaining? Try getting a stud remover rather than using an easy out. I've used one before and like you, my easy out extractor got lodged into a stud that was flush with the receiving surface. In my case, I had to pound out the female insert with a punch and hammer. You probably do not want to be doing that on the manifold though.

I would be extremely hesitant about using heat under the hood.
