I broke one of my lower oil pan bolts once, but I got this nice 'broken bolt retriever" that worked like a charm. You can get them at the Home Depot and they are worth it. No drilling out the hole and re-tapping. I just looked at the 5-piece (different sizes of course) set I have: Black & Decker Screw Extractor Set.
