After letting the Marvel's Mystery Oil sit in my engine for a couple weeks, i tried rocking the flywheel pully bolt back and forth...IT BROKE OFF. I thought I was getting movement, but it was only the bolt bending back and forth. What do I do next? I heard that if I connect two bolts to the flywheel pully, I can use that as leverage. Thoughts? Thank you in advance.

Pull the heads off. You will probably find the engine isn't worth saving. Let alone worring about a broken bolt at this point
