Rick I removed four broken exhaust manifold studs from the heads of a 315 V8 by using a torch and candle wax. You heat the stud until cherry red and then use a candle on the stud. The wax is to wick down the threads and release the studs. I had one that had about a 1/2" showing and it came out with a pair of vise grips. I know you said you don't have a torch but if you use one like Eric's it will probably get it hot enough.Good luck and take your time.
