Angry well, back to GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRr

Last night I cleaned off the oily parts of the engine to see where the oil was coming from. Tonight I got home and looked under the car and noticed a little oil coming out around one of the bolts that holds the valve cover (or rocker cover according to subaruparts.com) on. I thought it might be loose, so I started to tighten it. It turned really easily, so I figured I had found the problem. But it just kept turning. So I was all pissed that I had a stripped bolt which I could have taken out and just put a new bolt in no prob. But, as luck would have it, when my dad came out and started poking at it, it came out, but it was about 1/4" to short....the f$#*%!@ thing broke!!!!! So, now I have a little bolt stud in my engine and I gotta find a way to get it out (preferrably without going to Subaru). Any ideas? I REALLY NEED SOME HELP!!!! PLEASE!!!
