Broke the head off one of the alt. mount bolts...

I was trying to tighten the bolt closest to the oil filter and the head broke off. I removed the alternator and the mount and now I have about half an inch of the bolt sticking out of the block. I tried grabbing it with vice grips, but it's really stuck in there good! I don't want to completely chew up what I have to work with. Any suggestions? Is there a "right tool" for this job?
TIA,
Ken
